1. Summary
This document contains a detailed description of the below listed VCO GraphiXs Elements for
the 800xA PG2 Graphics Builder.
1.1. VCO Elements

The following screens provide an overview of the currently available VCO graphics elements.
Figure 1 - Consumer and Group graphic elements overview
Figure 2 - Signal graphic elements overview

1.2. Getting Started

1.2.1. Changing gridline spacing
The BMI GraphiXs library is optimized for a 4-pixel grid. Change the gridline spacing in the
Option window to 4, if not already done. (Menu bar: Tools -> Options)
Figure 3 - Options Window settings for Graphic Builder
1.2.2. VCO GraphiXs Toolboxes

The VCO GraphiXs Base Symbols and VCO GraphiXs Core Symbols are organized in the
toolboxes shown below.
Figure 4 - VCO GraphiXs Toolbox
Note: The Toolbox VCO Solutions should be the user’s first choice when using graphics for
non-minerals library objects.

Figure 5 - VCO GraphiXs Item drag and drop
Add a VCO GraphiXs Item to your graphic display from the toolbox by drag and drop or dou-
ble click. Afterwards you can manipulate the graphic items bounding rectangle to change size
and position. All VCO GraphiXs items properties are described in chapter Minerals GraphiXs
Items.
Hint: Sort the graphic item properties by category rather than name.
In case one cannot see the BMI GraphiXs toolboxes, check the settings ((Menu bar: Tools
→Options… → Toolbox Order) in the Options window shown in the following figure.

1.3. VCO GraphiXs Architecture and Building Blocks

general
This section describes the building blocks such as graphic items and input items available for
graphic aspects. Graphics Builder displays the description for all properties of graphic items
and input items as a tooltip corresponding to each property and also at the bottom of the
property window. The elements provided by the library significantly simplify the creation of a
modern, practical HMI design. The element presented in the following selection can be used
as a basis for your own HMI. The very same building blocks are used for the VCO graphic ele-
ments contained in the Minerals Library objects. Each element can be adapted with just a few
clicks, giving you full control despite the standardized layout of the templates.

2. Digital (DIS/DIC/DOS/DOC) Indication
2.1. Signal
The VCO element Signal is used to display the status of a digital process signal combined
with a description text. The shape of the icon can be displayed in the predefined selection
(shape), which are the same set of geometries also included in the consumer element. It has
the ability to show the healthy or unhealthy state of a signal. The alarm is indicated around
the icon. The indication of text is optional, depending upon the display requirements.

2.2. Alarm Text

The VCO element AlarmText is used to display the alarm/abnormal status of a digital process
signal combined with a description text. It has the ability to show the healthy or unhealthy
state of a signal. The shape of the background is rectangular so that it could accommodate
the text inside it. It is only abnormal indication, so it doesn’t support Namur and Signal Error.
The alarm is indicated around the text indication. If there is a delay in the alarm indication,
timer is indicated at the place defined by the operation box position.

2.3. Button
The VCO element Button is used to display the status of a digital process signal combined
with a description text. It has the ability to show the healthy or unhealthy state of a signal.
Different set of colors are used for the faceplate. It could be selected by an input property
(UseFPColorSet). It also has mouse over effect and writing in process.

3. Analog (AIS/AIC/AOS/AOC/PID) Indication
3.1. Value
The VCO element Value is used to display the actual value of analog process signal. The value
is accompanied with the unit. The prefix value is not present for the analog input blocks how-
ever used for motor current indication. The arrow in the left-hand side indicates the Rate Of
Change (ROC) of the analog value. In abnormal condition, the limit line is visible on top/bot-
tom depending upon whether high/low limit is reached.
