Creating maintained push buttons
Use the Maintained Push Button tool to create a button that changes a setting in a machine
or process.
When first pressed, the maintained push button changes a tag to one value. When pressed
and released a second time, the button changes the tag to another value.
Maintained push buttons are not useful for starting or stopping a machine or process.
Setting up maintained push button properties
In the Maintained Push Button Properties dialog box:
In the
General
tab, specify the general appearance and touch margins of the button,
how it changes states, and whether an audio signal is produced when it is pressed.
In the
States
tab, specify the appearance and behavior of the button for each state,
when it is pressed and released.
In the
Connections
tab, specify the tags or the expression the button will use for
transferring data.
