Standard Symbols

Standard symbols are required controls, which make up the basis for all visualisation projects, divided into six subordinate categories:

• Static Symbols for the set-up of the background with colour, various recipient models for technical process applications, outlines for building control and more than 100 symbols for general use  
• Input and output elements for the input and output of (alpha)numeric values, including plausibility check (for the touch screen version a country specific virtual keyboard can be displayed)
• Text visualisations with freely selectable font and freely selectable style as well as value dependant (SPS – variable) dynamic switching between background and foreground colour   
• Switches and buttons for the start-up and run down of aggregates and for the set-up of values;  each switch can also be parameterized as a button
• Numeric and seven-segment visualisation for the output of numeric values with physical units and a visualisation format to be defined freely; the foreground and background colour can be switched according to SPS variables
• Gauges for the graphic representation of values on a visualisation scale; scaling and colour can be selected freely
