permitted. Route signals from the touchpanel’s input and output join numbers
(digital, analog, and serial) to the various destinations (i.e., reserved join numbers,
Cresnet, various Ethernet IP IDs, and the serial port).
When creating a JNR program, signals that originate in the touchpanel can only be
routed to destinations outside of the touchpanel and vice-versa. The touchpanel
cannot be used to route signals internally.
NOTE: The following sections are intended to provide the reader with some
examples with respect to remapping. Since each programming scenario is different, it
is not intended to teach the reader how to program.
Reserved Join Numbers
Reserved join numbers are associated with a fixed touchpanel function. For example,
the following illustration shows the SIMPL Windows symbol for the Audio
Reserved Joins. Each signal name corresponds to a reserved join number. Inputs are
defined as signals that the panel receives. Outputs are signals generated by the panel.
The first output with a signal name for the Audio Reserved Joins is labeled On_fb
and has join number 17300 assigned. This output goes high when the touchpanel
audio is set to “On”. This signal can be remapped in SIMPL Windows to an
accessible touchpanel symbol join number (1 to 4000) for feedback as a status
indicator or Cresnet for further processing by the control system. With JNR, reserved
join numbers can now be used by the control system program (as opposed to creating
a button with a reserved join number in VT Pro-e).
NOTE: For a complete list of available reserved join numbers that can be remapped,
refer to the SIMPL Windows help file for each slot’s representative symbol (i.e.,
press F1 while viewing the touchpanel symbol).
