6 SCREEN CONFIGURATION AND BASIC OPERATION
6.5 Pop-up Window
A pop-up window is a window that displays monitor results of each tag.
6.5.1 Types of pop-up window
Pop-up windows are classified as follows.
MELSOFT
Pop-up faceplate
Pop-up tuning
6.5.2 Display form of pop-up window
A faceplate to display the adjusting instrument for simulating the process control device.
A screen to display a tuning screen of control.
(Faceplate + tuning trend graph + tag monitor)
Section 7.6
Section 7.7
Up to four pop-up windows can be displayed.
If a new pop-up window is opened when four pop-up windows have already been displayed, the earliest opened (displayed in the bottom) one among the four on-screen windows is automatically closed.
However, if it cannot be closed as displaying a dialog box for example, one next to the bottom is closed.
The window size can be changed as desired. (However, the aspect ratio of the faceplate is not variable.)
Maximize/minimize is not allowed.
REMARK
When a window is closed, its position and size will be stored. Thus it will be displayed at the same size next time. When other windows have been displayed, a new window is displayed in the slightly bottom-right position of the top window.
However, it will be displayed at a specific size after installation, as its size has not been stored.
If a new pop-up window is opened when four pop-up windows have already been displayed, the bottom of the on-screen pop-up windows is forcibly closed.
To keep the desired pop-up window open, close the unnecessary pop-up window before opening a new one.
In the server/client monitoring system, up to 72 windows among all OPSs (up to
4 windows in each OPS) can be displayed.
