Purpose
Using the 'Panel' component you can group other components within a specified frame. This allows to group room or area details or input masks for certain functions. With the Opacity [0-255] property you type in the degree of transparency of the component, where a value of 0 represents full transparency, the value 255 of the complete Opacity [0-255]. Using the same data point, you can externally change the Opacity [0-255], with an 8bit unsigned value.
With an on/off signal at the data point "Visible" the component will be switched visible / invisible in runtime. An on signal switches the component visible, an off signal invisible.
Data points of the component
Name |
Typ |
function |
|---|---|---|
Mouseover |
Output |
Sends out an On signal, if you hover over the component with the mouse pointer. |
Input |
Over a 1-byte value of 0-255, the Opacity [0-255] of the component can be changed. 0 is complete transparency. A value of 255 corresponds to the value that was set on the transparency in the properties of the component. If for example, the transparency in the properties of the component is set to 80%, this will be the level if you send a value off 255 to this data point. |
|
Visible |
Input |
If this input is not used, the component is always visible. The component can be made invisible with an off signal on this datapoint and visible with an on-signal on this data point. |

General information on sample templates (SCADAComp):
Download the desired SCADAComp file and unzip the ZIP file in an empty folder. Start the "Import components" option in the EisBaer Editor ribbon under Project and load the template. If a conversion is necessary because the EisBaer version is newer, confirm the process with YES. To maintain the functionality, select the option: "Create new nets" as a copy rule when pasting.
