Optional selection of magazines
Up to now, the softkey "Next magazine" could only control the display of the individual
magazine lists. If many magazines are present and there are important processes taking
place in the magazines with high magazine numbers, this places a burden on the operator.
Via an entry in the ini file the "Next magazine" softkey can be replaced with the "Magazine
selection" softkey.
Eight vertical softkeys for faster magazine navigation:
HMI Advanced (IM4)
Commissioning Manual, 03/2009, 6FC5397-0DP10-3BA0
The magazine list is displayed in this status.
(Softkeys 3 to 7 can only be used if the corresponding parameter
has been set in the ini file.)
Using the vertical softkeys "Magazine +" and "Magazine -" you can
switch to the magazine with the next highest or next lowest
magazine number within the TOA of the current channel of the
operator panel. (When you are positioned on the last magazine and
press "+" you jump to the first magazine; from the first to the last
again with "-".)
Using the five vertical softkeys 3 to 7, you can quickly jump to a
specific magazine within the TOA of the current channel of the
operator panel. The assignment to "Magazine-Ident" and the softkey
text must be parameterized in the INI file. When you select a
magazine via the vertical softkeys, the magazine list switches
immediately to the new magazine.
Press the vertical softkey 8 "<<" to return to the standard magazine
list state with the corresponding softkey assignment.
With the five softkeys for rapid magazine selection, you can set an
option in the INI file to return to the standard magazine list state
automatically. In this case, it is advisable to attach the character
string "<<" to the magazine name in the softkey text.
The rapid selection keys support multiple assignment for use in
different TOAs and for systems with N:M assignment between HMI
Advanced and NCUs. The responsibility of assigning only
magazines in different TOAs or different NCUs to the same softkey
lies with the person setting the parameters.
