Greetings! Currently, I am utilizing Studio 5000 View Designer V9 with a 12.1" PanelView 5310 HMI panel. In my setup, I am utilizing a Keyence Reader HR-X100 for scanning barcodes and have set up an array of 27 recipes to store these barcodes, each consisting of 3 stage scans - part A, part B, and part C. To enhance the user experience, I have created a customized faceplate where the barcode input is displayed. Is there a method to prompt a text display to show the "Expected values" for parts B and C when scanning part A, ensuring that the operator is aware of the next steps in the scanning process? Cheers!
Employing a counter can allow you to control the content displayed following each successive scan. This technique enables you to customize the information shown after the initial scan, subsequent scans, and beyond.
Hello! There's definitely a way to achieve that. Using the View Designer, you can set up dynamic text labels that change based on recipe input. In your case, once Part A is scanned, you could program the labels to fetch and display the expected values for Parts B and C from your recipe array. Make sure these conditonal labels are placed visibly on your faceplate for operator's quick reference. Also, consider color-coding or some other visual cues to denote that these are expected values for the upcoming steps. Happy coding!
Hello! That's quite an advanced setup you have there! You should be able to add a simple text display on your faceplate linked to your expected values for Part B and C. This could, in essence, act as a reference table. When Part A is scanned, it would trigger the text displays to show the corresponding expected values. Ensure to keep your array and the linked text displays synchronized for an error-free operation. This way, your operator would get real-time prompts for the next steps in the process. Cheers!
That sounds like a solid setup you've got going! For prompting the "Expected values" for parts B and C after scanning part A, you could use a combination of a tag-driven approach and some conditional logic in your faceplate design. Once part A is scanned, you can trigger a display event that fetches and shows the corresponding expected values for parts B and C based on your recipe array. Using a simple if-then structure in your logic can help ensure that the right prompts appear dynamically, making it clear to the operator what needs to be scanned next. If you’d like, I can help you brainstorm more specific tag configurations! Cheers!
