FTView: Change caption of Text Object

[anhtuandrg 0]

I'm coverting a project SCADA from iFix to FTView. In iFix, it has a text that can change respectively following value of a tag "VAL" like:

+ If VAL has value 0 then the caption of the text is "Local".

+  If VAL has value 1 then the caption of the text is "Remote".

I wonder whether FTView can do this or not, and How?

Thank you so much!

I know you can do it, I used to use it to show Run/Stopped/Failed, Local/Remote, etc by reading a state tag (0,1,3. 2 was reserved for in travel, etc). However, I haven't worked with an AB touch panel in years. As I recall it's pretty simple to do

Seems to me that you are asking for a "Multi-State Indicator" that is tagged to a DINT and then states configured to compare to a specific value of the DINT and then display the text.

Yes! A Multi-State Indicator. I couldn't remember what it was called.
