1.1 Graphic Panel
Graphic Panel (after referred to as GP) is graphic interface device for monitoring parameters of
controller such as PLC. It is one of human-machine interface (HMI) or man-machine interface
(MMI).
If controller does not have visual interface, it is difficult to find out current value or status of
process. In this case, GP is a practical device.
GP monitors control parameter visually by LCD screen or switches the other screen or
designates variable value by touching touch screen. GP and controller are connected by serial
communication and inter-change mutual information.
The variable for controller is displayed by various methods as tag which is graphic object. For
example, if the physical variable for monitoring is temperature, GP displays temperature as
numeral by numeral input tag, or as trend graph with changes by time. GP screen consists of
these graphic objects combinations.
GP Editor which is dedicated software for user defined screen data in GP helps draw screen or
edit data. After editing screen data such as tag form, arrangement, and attribution, download
these to GP and GP starts to monitor by screen data.
