4.6.4 Display Bar Chart (Module 9083)
Displays a bar chart in the screen window for the PLC status display on the specified line, with the
specified lengths and in the specified colors.
A bar chart can be displayed in the left half of each line in the PLC status window. In this mode the

Line 0
Line 1
Column 0
The operator must specify the line, maximum length (0...150), current length (<= maximum length)
and the colors of the bars or the margin and scale graduation (0...15). If the maximum length
exceeds 150 it is limited to 150. If current length exceeds maximum length then it is limited to the
maximum length.
The chart comprises a rectangular grid with the maximum length and height of the ASCII characters.
A scale graduation is shown at the top after every 10 units. The bar starts from the left hand edge of
the grid. The unused part of the grid is filled in with the background color.
Constraints:
- The height of the bar chart varies according to the size of the screen window, i.e. the current
operating mode, and cannot be modified.
