Operating the TP 070 Operating Touch Elements Operating concept The screen is used to observe the operating status of the machine or system being monitored and, at the same time, to intervene directly in the process running simply by touching the buttons and input fields displayed. Definition Touch elements are contact-sensitive operating elements provided on the touch panel screen, such as buttons and input fields.
Page 21
Operating the TP 070 Operation acknowledgement As soon as the touch panel detects valid contact with a touch element, it responds by displaying a visual acknowledgement. An acknowledgment is independent of communication with the PLC. It is not an indication of the required action actually having been executed.
Operating the TP 070 Entering Values Principles of operation Input fields are used to enter digits (characters 0 to 9 and A to F). To do so, touch the corresponding field. The system keyboard appears. After completing an entry, the system keyboard automatically disappears. If the entry is valid, the new value is accepted in the input field.

Operating the TP 070 Operating Screens What is a screen? Screens visualize the progress of processes and display specified process values. A screen contains logically related process data which the operating unit can both display and modify by operating the individual values. Screen partitions A screen is basically composed of static and dynamic sections.
Operation of Screen Objects In this chapter This chapter introduces the screen objects which may be contained in a configuration and explains their operation. It provides the following information: a summary of screen objects (page 5-2) the state button (from page 5-3) TP 070 Equipment Manual Release 03/00...
Operation of Screen Objects Overview of Screen Objects Table 5-1 Screen objects configurable for the TP 070 Screen object Use/Description Output field The output field displays the current value received from the PLC in numeric or alphanumeric form. Input field The input field is used to enter values which are then transferred to the PLC.
Page 27
Operation of Screen Objects State Button Purpose The state button is an operating and display element with the two states ON and OFF . State buttons indicate the status of a unit which cannot be determined from the operating unit (e.g. a motor). At the same time, it is also possible to change the status of the unit concerned on the operating unit.
Page 28
Operation of Screen Objects Representation When the state button is set to switch , the configuration software can be used to assign different text or graphics to indicate the status of the button during runtime. Figure 5-1 illustrates an example of a state button when pressed (left) and not pressed (right).
System Settings In this chapter This chapter provides information on the following general settings which can be modified on the operating unit online: Operating mode (page 6-2) Screen contrast and calibration (page 6-3) Screen deactivation (page 6-5) TP 070 Equipment Manual Release 03/00...
System Settings Setting an Operating Mode Conditions for changing operating modes In order to switch between the operating modes described below, the function Change_mode must be linked to an operating element in the project. Operating modes It is possible to switch between various operating modes on the operating unit: Offline mode In this mode there is no logical connection between the operating unit and PLC.
System Settings Screen Settings Purpose In order to be able to optimize reading from the screen according to varying light conditions and viewing angles, the following settings can be modified: Set contrast to compensate for varying light conditions. Calibrate screen in order to compensate for the parallel axis, which is dependent on the installation position and angle of observation, and any operating errors which may occur as a result.
