help with D-function block

[John_Ess]

Is there a way to display status of each I and Q (inputs and outputs) using D-Text Display function block?

I1 = ON
I2 = OFF
Q1 = OFF
Q2 =ON
etc

 Yes  Da hüpft die Katze!

What I had in mind was to use a single D-Function Block and display status of as many as required I and Q simultaneously. Kind of like

In: 1234 5678 9ABC
     O110 1110 0101
Output: 1 2 3 4 5 6
Status:  0 0 1 1 0 1

I know of doing it with each I and Q assigned to an individual D-block but that requires plenty of D-blocks

So my question remains

Hi John Ess
In my opinion, it is not possible. The only possibility by D-Function Blocs is, to show ASCII Text and decimal values.

EASY 800 and control   -  Yes

Unless Bimbo knows better, how the cat jumps.

Hey John Ess
I had just an idea:
Your wish could come true by using MFD-TITAN. Have a look at the example Bitshow at the appendix.

[John_Ess]

Thanks KressSwiss,

Your fine example does of course a trick with some graphic boxes and I / O opcodes but available only with MFD-TITAN as you said. Well, too bad we cannot use the same with easy800.

How about using some non-printable characters to implement a crude representation of graphics similar to ones used with ANSI block codes?

Can you elaborate on your method showing a bit of code 

[Bimbo]

only an example! It´s not perfect!!!!


Not for Swiss-use!

Hi John Ess
In one Line of the D-Functions blocs are 16 replacement characters possible. But the problem is, you can't switch them on or off in single mode. If we could, then we would have the possibility to realise your idea. We had also the possibility to show bargraphs. To cut a story short, this will never be possible by Easy800.
