Chart ActiveX control
This ActiveX control uses user-defined data type (UDT) capability in Logix controllers to create a data structure. The control uses two UDTs, Chart, and DataSeries, to contain the data and datasets used to render the chart at runtime.
IMPORTANT:
- Do not change the UDT member names. It is recommended to use the default naming convention to simplify troubleshooting. Changing the UDT member names will prevent the control from drawing data at runtime.
- This control may slow the display load time at runtime due to the UDT.
This control supports up to eight data series plotted against one fixed data series. You can use the control in multiple applications. For example, you can use the control to plot a current process variable and a variable from another process against a known value.
This control has the same functionality on a Windows desktop, and a MobileView, PanelView Plus 7 or PanelView Plus 6 terminal.
When using this control on a PanelView Plus 7 or PanelView Plus 6 terminal:
- Only the pens with solid and dashed line styles are supported. Any other style will show as a dashed line.
- Diagonal up and diagonal down shading directions of the gradient style are not supported.
The Chart ActiveX control specifies data point connection type by chart, while the ChartEx ActiveX control specifies data point connection type by pen.
