I'm not to good with RSView yet and am learning. I've been toying with the animation etc. Say I want to have a graphic of a fan rotate when the fan turns on, how would I accomplish that?
From what I can see the only alternative is to create a gif that is animated then activate the animation when the fan is on. Also if I want to view the contents of a timer accumulator it doesn't seem to do it. I've gotten a smaller timer to work with a preset of 400 but if I try something larger like 32766 it won't show. The tag is analog with T20:1.ACC or .2 and neither seem to work.
Would it be best to copy the contents to an n file then poll that? I don't need it, was just toying with it and figuring out how to set the tags and the best way to get the values to the tags. Is it better to create an HMI file in the RS program and have the outputs and inputs as N:x or is this just wasting bits? I've seen it done this way so was questioning as to how standard a practice that is also.
