Numeric Input in RSView

6 posts in this topic

Hey all, I'm trying to create a numeric input box that will take a value (lets say 450.0) and strip out the decimal. OK, that part was easy. (I used decimal point Fixed Position (1), and selected Stripped Value.) Where I'm having my problem, is: I'd like to have the entered value show up in the box after I'm done entering it. If I select the tag in the Label field, it shows up as 4500. (This makes since, as it's what was written in the PLC.) How can I make it show as the entered 450.0? Kevin

If you use a memory tag in the HMI, you could scale that tag in the TAG editor. Have it display 10% of the original value with one decimal place. 4500 X .10=450.0

I believe that you can simply enter the tag / 10 (in the field that you would normally put the tag) instead of creating a memory tag.

No... Won't work. That's what I had been trying to do. It just displays (value/10).
