Indirect Addressing with Panelview 550

Hey All, Im trying to address a FIFO on my plc and show the first 5 records of it and allow the customer to scroll through all the records. so is it possible to use a indirect address in a tag on the panelview terminal? Cheers, Shawn

As far as I know it is not possible. When I want to do something similar, I create an array in the PLC that is just for viewing on the HMI. The HMI looks at this array with static indexes, while the PLC logic does the copying from segments of the actual array to create the illusion of indirect addressing.
