Hello!
Is there a way to use the concept of parameters in C-More HMI software? For example, want to have one template pop up display and pass parameters in and out of it. So, as an example a simple hand/off/auto control and status indicators for a valve. Instead of having a separate screen for each valve, just have one screen and pass in different parameters based on which valve is selected. (Sort of like parameter list function in FTView Studio)
I see where you can designate a screen as a template, which you can use as a common background for example for multiple screens, however you cannot pass parameters in and out. I did call Automation Direct support and they indicated there was not a way to do it, however I felt like the support person I talked to wasn't fully understanding what I was asking. It can't be the case if you have an HMI overview screen with say, 50 valves, you would need a separate screen for each valve, but I don't see a way around it.
This is for a home automation project, would appreciate any insight!
TIA,
Greg
