Chapter 1 TPEdit Operation Dynamic Bitmap: Choose Object (O) > Bitmap > dynamic bitmap or click the button . TP reads PLC the corresponding contacts (ON or OFF) or register data value will do comparison operation according to the corresponding base state. The setting bitmap will be displayed on the screen according to the operation result. (it you check bit, base state could be 0 or 1. If you check value, base state could be set to 255) Step 1.
Chapter 1 TPEdit Operation will show the corresponding bitmap. For example, if current state 0 and range value is 100, current state 1 and range value is 300, when device value is between 100, 300 and it will show the corresponding bitmap of current state 0, if device value is large than 300, and it will show the corresponding bitmap of current state 1. But if device value is small than 100, it won’t display any bitmap due to no current state conforms to it. Step 4.
Chapter 1 TPEdit Operation Step 2. You could set scale position, progress direction, main scale, sub scale, Max. value, Min value, value length or font in the dialog box. Step 3. The graduation of scale could be face up, down, left or right.

Chapter 3 Examples Chapter 3 Examples Example 1. Edit Start Figure Step 1. Open TPEdit to select File(F) to create new file. Then choose View(V)> Start Figure and it will escape Start Figure Step 2. In edition display, you can choose static text or static graphics. If you choose static graphics, the mouse pointer will become to cross pointer in the working area. At this time, you can press the left button of mouse and hold on to drag.
Chapter 3 Examples Step 4. In TP04G, choosing 1. download program TP04G show the words of “WAIT COMM…”. PC. On TP04 screen, it will Step 5. In TPEdit, choosing “Communication” > “Write Start figure to TP” and then press “Yes” for confirmation. It will start to download to TP and it will display the progress during download. Start figure can be downloaded without compiler. Step 6. In TP04G, choosing “4. TP04G SETUP” > “8. START-UP DISPLAY” > “2.
Chapter 3 Examples Step 2. Model settings should be set as following: 1. Set Device Type: You should choose “DELTA PLC”, TP type: you should choose TP04G, File Name: you can name by yourself, here we name it “ Connection with two PLC” and then press “OK” to enter edit mode. Step 3. To choose ”Object(O)” and move mouse to working area. At this time, mouse pointer will be cross pointer. To press left button and hold on to drag and the component will show in window after you release the button. Step 4.
Chapter 3 Examples Step 5. To click in the right side of button type and you can choose Button type. Step 6. To click besides “Write” and the window of “Device reference” will be shown as following. Here we set Y1 to control ON/OFF of Y1. That is very important to set the communication address. If the communication address of the first PLC is 1 and then set it to 1, the communication address of the second PLC is 2 then set it to 2. Each PLC has its communication address independently. Step 7.
Chapter 3 Examples show “WAIT COMM…“. Step 14. In TPEdit, to choose “Communicate” > “Write to TP” and press “OK” to download program to TP04G. Step 15. To modify PLC communication address according to PLC parameter setting. Step 16. Using RS-485 to connect TP and PLC. The connection method is to connect negative terminal of RS-485 of two PLC to negative terminal of RS-485 of TP04G and connect positive terminal of RS-485 of two PLC to positive terminal of RS-485 of TP04G. Step 17.Then choosing “5.
