Properties of the component

Component name

Standard

Function

Maximum input value

100

Specifies the maximum possible input value. If a larger value is entered, the output is limited to this number.

Send value if focus is lost

 

Sends the set value if the touch value input is no longer selected.

Send value after input

X

If active, the value is sent by pressing the "Enter" button or the "=". If this option is not active, the value is only sent when an ON or OFF signal is sent at the "Send value" data point (depending on the setting).

Send value when ON

X

Activate to trigger a value transmission with an ON edge. If deactivated, it reacts to OFF edges.

Factor

Transmitted values are multiplied by the set factor. The incoming value is divided by the factor so that values (incoming) are displayed correctly again via the bidirectional data point.

Formatting

##0

see Formatting

Auto delete on input

 

If a new value is entered via the dropdown, the value is set to zero to facilitate the new value entry

Lock operation (display only)

 

If this parameter is set, the component cannot be operated. It then only has a display function.

 

Under Formatting, "# # 0" specifies the type and length of possible input. For example, for a number greater than 999, the formatting must be extended to # # # 0.
