Display
The R/H-CPUs have a front cover with a display and operating keys. The display of the
CPUs shows you the control and status information in various menus. You use operating
keys to navigate through the menus and make a variety of settings in the process.
Benefits
The display offers the following advantages:
●
Reduced downtimes through diagnostic messages in plain text
●
Less time required for commissioning and maintenance, shorter plant downtime.
●
Shorter downtimes due to read/write access to force tables and read/write access to
watch tables.
The watch and force tables allow you to monitor and modify the actual values of
individual tags of a user program on the display. You can find additional information on
the watch and force tables in the section Test functions (Page 282) and in the STEP 7
online help.
●
On site, an image (backup copy) of the functioning plant can be
–
Backed up on the SIMATIC memory card of the CPU
–
Restored from the SIMATIC memory card of the CPU
You do not require an additional PG/PC.
●
Visualization of the SYNCUP system state with graphic and percentage progress display
Password protection for the display
In the properties of the CPUs, you configure a password in STEP 7 for display operation.
Local access protection is thus protected with a local password. Password protection can be
configured differently for each display.
