Large Faceplate/Tabular Wizards
Usage
Large Faceplate/Tabular Data Screen wizards are three-dimensional representations
of device faceplates that can be used to display data from the device. These three-
dimensional wizards include extensive logic that provides an accurate reproduction
of the actual display and keys of the device. Large Faceplate wizards are typically
placed in overlay windows.
By clicking on the display of a Large Faceplate wizard, you can display a tabular
data screen portion of the wizard. Tabular Data Screen wizards contain organized,
comprehensive, tabular layouts of device parameters including additional
configuration and remote control features. To make the Tabular Data Screen portion
of the wizard display by default, select the Tabular Datasheet checkbox in the
configuration window.
You can move and resize Tabular Data Screen wizards as desired.
Special Considerations

Each Tabular Data Screen wizard contains buttons for activating the help file, trend
window, setup window (if applicable) Event Logger, Waveform Capture, and for
closing the window.

section. These switch among various pages relating to data and setpoints.
