Configure visual feedback for an HMIBC button

Configure any property of a graphic element to provide visual feedback from the device being controlled by the HMIBC instruction. The .ProgFB member of the HMIBC tag provides
  • feedback to the HMI device when the device controlled by the HMIBC instruction changes state.
The .ProgFB member communicates over a high-priority I/O connection.
TIP:
The HMI Button Control (HMIBC) function is disabled for

 projects.
Prerequisites
  • Verify that the Logix Designer project includes an HMIBC instruction with the .ProgFB member as an input from the device or machine.
  • Create a high-speed HMIBC button in
    View Designer
    .
To configure feedback for an HMIBC button
  1. On the screen, select a graphic element to use for indicating the state of the device being controlled by the HMIBC instruction.
  2. In the
    Properties
    window, bind a property of the graphic element, such as Visibility, to the .ProgFB member of the HMIBC tag.
    TIP:
    If the device controlled by the HMIBC instruction does not have a feedback signal, show feedback in the HMI project by binding a property of an element to the .Out member of the HMIBC instruction. When the .ButtonState member is set, the HMIBC instruction also sets the .Out member and indicates that the instruction received the button press from the HMI device. The .Out member communicates over a high-priority I/O connection.
