Replacing the Multistate
Indicator Object List
In PanelBuilder 1400e software, the multistate indicator object list
consists of up to 24 multistate indicator objects. Because these objects
function as a list, they are configured as a group, not individually.
Each multistate indicator in the list allows the operator to view the
state of a PLC operation on the screen. Each indicator supports from 2
to 255 states. For each state, you can define unique state values,
labels, colors and attributes. The multistate indicators can have two
different vertical heights: single or double height.
FactoryTalk View ME software provides the multistate indicator as a
replacement for the multistate indicator object list. Because the
multistate indicator only allows you to assign a single indicator tag to
the object, you will need to create multiple objects and group them
together. For example, if the original multistate indicator object list has
four visible states, then you will need to create four multistate
indicators and group them together to achieve the same look and feel.
Create Multistate Indicators
Follow these steps to create multistate indicators.
1. Open the display with the
piloted control list selector.
2. Select Objects>
Indicator>Multistate and
draw the object.
The objects look similar but
are different.
The PanelBuilder 1400e
multistate indicator object
list let you assign a tag to
each state you define.
The FactoryTalk View ME
multistate indicator lets you
assign only a single
indicator tag to the object.
You will need to create as
many multistate indicators
as there are visible states in
the original multistate
indicator list object.
