| Graphics configuration
|
Refers to all graphics configuration in
DeltaV Live:
- graphic elements
- displays
- contextual displays
- layouts
- languages
- themes
- GEM classes
- templates
- standards
- functions
|
Objects
|
| Languages
|
Define the
language-specific content for configurable strings that exist within a DeltaV
Live configuration database.
DeltaV Live supports
the use of multiple languages for all configurable string content that appears
in DeltaV Live display configuration and online displays. This
language-specific content allows different operators to see the same DeltaV
Live display, in the same DeltaV system, with their preferred language content.
|
New in DeltaV Live
|
| Themes
|
Refer to a set of theme-specific values that
can be used in place of standards, allowing the same graphics configuration to
appear differently on different workstations or at different times on the same
workstation. Themes can be created for entire displays, including all graphic
elements contributing to the display.
|
Themed color sets
|
| GEM classes
|
A graphic element used to represent process
control equipment or other objects on a display. A GEM class provides a means
to define common appearance and behaviors for the linked GEMs created from a
GEM class.
|
Dynamos
|
| Linked GEMs
|
An instance of a GEM class that has been
added to a display, contextual display, or other GEM and remains linked to its
GEM class. When a GEM class is modified and saved, all GEMs linked to it are
immediately updated with the changes.
|
Not applicable
|
| Unlinked GEMs
|
An instance of a GEM class that has been
added to a display, contextual display, or other GEM, and that has been
unlinked from that GEM class. An unlinked GEM does not receive updates from the
GEM class it was created from.
|
Instance of a dynamo on a display
|
| Library items
|
Refer to all graphics configuration or
components contained in configuration libraries (GEM classes, templates,
standards, and functions).
|
Not applicable
|
| Templates
|
Provide a starting point for creating new
displays and layouts and a means to define a common appearance and behavior for
a group of displays or layouts.
|
Layout files (applies
to layout templates only)
All other templates
are new to DeltaV Live
|
| Standards
|
Values that can be referenced by properties
on displays, layouts, GEM classes, or graphic elements, and provide a means to
ensure a consistent graphics appearance within a DeltaV Live system.
|
Global variables
|
| Library functions (library animations)
|
Conversion logic that can be referenced by
properties in display, layouts, GEM classes, or graphic elements. Library
functions provide a means to create logic that converts values of one type into
values of a different type.
|
Look up tables and animation tables
|
| Displays
|
Present process
information to operators in DeltaV Live and provide them with a means to take
typical actions affecting that part of the process, such as responding to
alarms.
Various levels of
displays can be created, with each display level presenting a different level
of detail, thus providing operators with situational awareness over some part
of the process through a hierarchical set of displays.
|
Pictures
|
| Contextual displays
|
Pop-up displays whose content varies
depending on the context in which they are opened. Faceplates and detail
displays are examples of contextual displays.
|
Faceplates, detail displays, and trend
displays
|
| Display sets
|
Define the collection
of displays that are available on a designated operator workstation. The
displays within a display set are intended to match the specific
responsibilities of the control room they are used in and the operator roles
for which they are created.
Display sets also
provide built-in navigation tools that help operators efficiently navigate
their displays.
|
Not applicable
|
| Layouts
|
Arrange and purpose regions of the available
display surface on workstations and remote client sessions.
|
Layouts
|
| Variables
|
Provide a means to
reuse, or share, property values or other data through graphics expressions or
scripts.
Variables are created
on a display, layout, group, or GEM class, and can be referenced from any
element on its containing display, layout, group, or GEM.
|
Local variables
|
| Graphic elements
|
The graphics components used to build
displays, contextual displays, and layouts.
|
Objects added to a display
|
| Screens
|
Graphic elements that
define the total available space in a layout and serve as containers for
display frames. Each screen represents the size and relative position of an
operator's physical monitor.
|
Not applicable
|
| Display frames
|
Graphic elements that
divide a screen's available real-estate into regions and designate which level
of displays open in each region.
Display frames also
provide the configuration options for a layout's automatic display routing and
coordination, which allows you to customize which displays open in each region
and how operators navigate between them.
|
Not applicable
|
| Publishing
|
A direct action performed by users that
authorizes configurations to be deployed, as soon as possible, for use into the
online environment. Configurations that must be deployed to the online
environment, either after users create or modify them, include graphics
configuration, library items, and DeltaV Live Workstation configurations.
|

|
| Interactions
|
A collection of actions that define how
DeltaV Live users can interact with graphics on running displays. Graphics
Studio provides the means to customize these interactions through an
Interactions tab in the Graphics Configuration pane.
|
Events
|
| Alarm List graphic elements
|
A graphic element used on displays to show
the active alarms in operators' scopes of responsibility and provide the means
for them to respond efficiently to these alarms.
|
Alarm Summary Active X controls
|
| Batch controls
|
A graphic element used on displays to
represent a Batch control.
