Stored Screens
Each Maple OIT is capable of displaying up to 500 pre-programmed screens of text and
graphics characters. Screens are created for:
•
Providing instructions to the OIT operator.
•
Notifying the OIT operator of alarm conditions.
•
Displaying current values from the OIT’s data and coil registers. This provides the OIT
operator with information about the control process
•
Modifying the values in the OIT’s data and coil registers. This provides the OIT operator
with a means of changing the operating parameters of a control system.
There are five different screen types for display on OITs: Message, Recipe, Alarm, Menu,
and Help screens. Each screen type has a different function for which it has been customized.
