Opening a Station Page

For a polling driver, the station number is the number that has been assigned to the Poll Sequence Number property on the tag's I/O tab.

For a Data Flow RTU driver tag, the station number is the number that has been assigned to the Station Number (RTU Address), Digipeat Route property on the tag's ID tab.

The Station Navigator is activated when you press either the F11 or F12 function keys on your keyboard.

•    When called by the F11 key, the Station Navigator will open the associated station dialog in a resizable window that sits on top of any other page you were viewing previously.

•    When called by the F12 key, the Station Navigator will open the associated station page as a regular, full-sized window in the Display Manager's page display area.

 

The Station Navigator is shown below.

To open the station dialog for a specific station, enter the station number in the Station Number field, and then press the OK button.

 

As discussed in the previous section, station pages display and provide access to information about the polling driver tag or Data Flow RTU tag and its associated I/O tags. There are two ways in which you can open a station page:

•    Click the station symbol associated with the station whose data you wish to view (while the application is in operation mode); OR

•    Press the F11 function key on your keyboard, and then enter into the Station Navigator the appropriate station number.
