Function Block Faceplate Controls
The
Logix Designer
programming application includes faceplate controls for some function block instructions. Faceplates are Active-X controls used in applications that acts as an Active-X container. The faceplates communicate with the controller via the <RSLC> OPC Server or the FactoryTalk Linx
Gateway.
IMPORTANT:
The
Logix Designer
programming application is not a valid Active-X container. An Active-X container is required to use the faceplates.These instructions have faceplates:
- Process Discrete Input (PDI)
- Process Discrete Output (PDO)
- Process Analog Input (PAI)
- Process Analog Output (PAO)
- Alarm (ALM)
- Enhanced Select (ESEL)
- Totalizer (TOT)
- Ramp/Soak (RMPS)
- Discrete 2-State Device (D2SD)
- Discrete 3-State Device (D3SD)
- Enhanced PID (PIDE)
Configure the faceplates through property pages that open through container applications.
All faceplates have these property pages in common:
- General
- Display
- Font
- Locale
