Or choose ActionPrint....
l
The print dialogue box is displayed for the Windows printers on the Station

printer.

Understanding display objects
As you move around the displays, you will notice that they contain discrete items such as
buttons, check boxes and indicators—these are called display objects. The following tables
describe the main types of display object.
If you are calling up a display from a Web browser instead of Station (for example, via
Premium eServer), you may be prompted to 'Click to activate and use this control' for certain
kinds of objects. In this case, you can either left-click on the object with your mouse or you
can tab to the object and then press the Spacebar or ENTER key.

Description
Alphanumeric. There are two types of alphanumeric:
Read-only, which displays a numeric value (such as boiler
n
temperature) or text (a message or status).
Data-entry, which you can edit. For example, if the alphanumeric
n
represents a point's SP (set point)— such as boiler temperature—
changing its value will change the boiler's temperature.
Note that abnormal values are displayed differently. See Abnormal
alphanumeric value indication on the next page.
Button. When you click a button, Experion performs a specified task, such
as turning off a motor or calling up another display.
