Function

With the input combobox, values from a drop-down list in text form can be selected and written on a signal.

The target signal requires an analog or digital signal from a virtual module of the type ibaQPanel input or of the type ibaQPanel text input for entering texts. The modules ibaQPanel input and ibaQPanel text input can be found in the I/O Manager in the Analytics tab under the virtual modules.

Configuration

Choose a target signal first. This can be:

    • A text section of an ibaQPanel text input module

    • An analog or digital signal of a virtual ibaQPanel input module

Both the text sections and the virtual ibaQPanel signals must have been configured in the I/O Manager before.

In the list below, you define the text which appears as plain-text in the drop-down list. By clicking on the button you can add a new entry. Insert the text and the corresponding value. By clicking on the button you can delete the currently highlighted line. The order of the list can be changed via arrow buttons.

In the field Font, you define font and character size of the display in the drop-down list.
