Check List

Post by ECS-SA » Tue Mar 22, 2011 1:47 am

Hi all is there away how we can incorporate a checklist on the screen so that when the ignition is switched on and the Pv750 has power that the checklist can first go through the machine and if it is then safe to start that the machine will then be able to start

Not sure i understand what your needing but it sounds like you should be able to use a combination of an event that fires on showing the page view (Go to the Advanced menu on the page view) and a state machine that enables or disables the functionality.

If you can give more information or provide a configuration i am sure one of us can create a quick example for you.

Ok. I took a look and you are pretty close. I have modified your Checklist state machine to hopefully get you going. I"m not able to test it here without all of the data but hopefully this will get you unstuck.

Basically the process is this.

On the stat of the state machine i transition to the Checking state where i start a timer that leaves and enters the state every one second. Each second the verify checklist event condition will be fired. You will need to edit this expression (VerifyChecklist) to return 1 when all the checklist items are OK. When this expression becomes true (1) then the checking to process will fire and show your next page.

Hope this helps
