Polled Station Widget

Used by: DataFlow RTU,  Polling Driver.

* Does not use the Style Settings tag.

The Polled Station tag widget is used to display the number of the RTU that is actively being polled. Displays * between polls.

The properties dialog for the Polled Station:

Font

Select one of the font tags (or parameter linked to a font tag) that you wish to use to display the text. The display will use the default system font if you do not select a font tag.

The parameters button is enabled only if the tag is drawn on a page that includes a font parameter, or if the tag is part of a widget and the associated widget editor is open.

Note: While it is possible (and very easy) to modify the appearance of the text within this widget using the Format ribbon of the Idea Studio, you will find it much easier to manage a group of similar controls by defining a font tag and selecting that for each. Changes to all can then be made by adjusting the properties of a single font tag.

Type of Border

Examples of the three border types are shown at the beginning of this topic.

Colors (Text and Background)

Opens the Select Color Dialog from which you can select the color of the text.

The background color against which the text will be displayed can also be defined.

Disable Options

Disable selected operator-interaction features of this widget.
