Printouts from the Operator Panel
190 Mitsubishi Electric, MA00759F
The properties for the printer are made in the dialog under Setup/Peripherals. For
configuration of the printer, refer to the printer manual.
12.2 Text Block Reports
Reports are created as text blocks with static and dynamic text. Dynamic objects has
to be defined to print values from the process. The width of the reports is a maximum
of 150 characters. The printer must support an IBM expanded ASCII character set.
When to print reports can be determined through time channels, for example. See
the chapter Text-based Presentation for Printouts and Reports and Time Channels for
further information.
12.3 Graphic Block Printouts
Graphic blocks can be printed via Ethernet using a PC server. Alternatively, a printer
can be connected to the operator panel’s USB port. Graphic blocks can only be print-
ed when they are displayed on the screen (screen dump).
Commands can be entered on the command line by double-clicking on System
Signals in the Setup folder in the Project Manager. By entering the command NHD
graphic blocks will be printed on a laser printer without header (which normally in-
cludes block name, block number, date and time).
Note:
The printer class PCL 6 is not supported at all.
Note:
E1012 and E1022 support connection to serial printer only.
Note:
For graphic block printouts the printer’s internal memory should be at least 5 MB, if
point-to-point.
Note:
The alarm block, i.e. the graphic block which contains the alarm list is printed out as
a text printout.
