Hello! Is it possible to set a timer to maintain the startup screen as long as the PLC is fully running? In my case around 50 seconds. Thank you in advance!

Hi @SpeedFil, To clarify, do you mean use a timer to maintain the startup screen as long as the PLC is NOT fully running? If so, one method that will accomplish this would require you to configure the output of the timer such that it triggers a PLC control object set to "Execute macro program". This PLC control object can be configured to trigger a Macro that will change the current window as shown within this tutorial: kzbin.info/www/bejne/h6SvnKKifdWLeac.

Very interesting, I need to make a macro with a 5000 hours horometer for service, but the timer must be maintained even after a power outage. do you have a piece of advice about how to do it ?. Thank you

Hi Alejandro, The best way to save information is to use our RW or RW_A registers. These are retentive registers and will save the information entered in the HMI's flash memory. In the event of a power failure the data will be saved and visible when the HMI receives power again.

How do you set hours and minutes from your keyboard?

[@tommicava9675]

I can write simple numbers, but how can I make the program knows that the numbers have to refer at the Hours and minutes?
