How to Control a Vijeo Designer HMI panel navigation using a SoMachine PLC
Product Line
Vijeo Designer, SoMachine, EcoStruxure Machine Expert
Resolution:
To control the panel displayed on a Vijeo Designer HMI from a SoMachine PLC,
1) Start by creating a SoMachine variable of type INT and share it with Vijeo Designer through the Symbol Configuration.
In our example, the INT variable is called "iPanelNumber" from the POU called "PanelControl":
2) Once this is done, you should link this shared variable to an internal variable in Vijeo Designer called _CurPanelID
- Select _CurPanelID from the Variables pane.
- Assign the Variable from SoMachine "_SoM.MyController.Application.PANELCONTROL.iPanelNumber" to the "Read From Variable" row of the Property Inspector
This method is also viable in EcoStruxure Machine Expert.
Attached is a Sample Project created in SoMachine v4.3 Patch 2 with Vijeo Designer v6.2.6.1 update installed:
