100 PMCS Interface Toolkit
The right side of the screen contains a display of the device data. The tabs at the
bottom enable you to select among the various data tables which can be displayed.
The number of tabs (screens) varies according to the type and amount of data
available from the device. The two main types of data are metering, which shows the
data being monitored by the device, and setup, which is used to configure the device.
Other tabs may be available depending on the device’s capabilities.
Some devices have push buttons that reset events or clear accumulated data; these
will be discussed below in the individual device sections. These functions are
represented by 3-D push buttons on the tabular data screens. When a button is
pressed, a dialog box appears that either asks for confirmation of the action or states
that the operator has an insufficient access level to perform the operation. If security
is enabled in your InTouch application, the current operator must have an Access
level greater than or equal to the Access level configured for each tabular wizard in
order to issue device commands. See the Wonderware InTouch documentation for
more information on how to use security features within InTouch.
