Visualization interface:
Within the interface of a visualization no type "INTERFACE" may be used.
DataServer:
The Diagnosis Visualization - because it is only designated to inspect the current
application - in contrast to the Target-Visualization will not monitor the current values
of variables which are provided via the Data Server from another data source! For
those just the initial values or the last transferred values will be displayed.
8.17 Visualization running on external devices
By use of »PLC Designer« HMI (HMI=Human Machine Interface) a visualization that has
been created with the »PLC Designer« programming system can be executed on a
device being allowed to differ from the device, where the visualized application is
processed on.
In contrast to the »PLC Designer« HMI integrated in version V2.x it is no longer
necessary to execute a download of the complete project. Today the »PLC Designer«
HMI is a runtime system embracing the client, a visualization application as well as a
data server that will update the variables driving the visualization. Hence, the use of
»PLC Designer« HMI does not depend on the platform (Windows, CE, Linux, QNX, …).
Because of the internal treatment of the HMI as target visualization it has a high
performance.
