Embodiment Construction

[0048] figure 1An exemplary process plant network 10 is shown in which a graphical configuration application can be used to create a display of graphical elements for a user display that can be used in one or more viewing or monitoring applications 20 to monitor or control process plant 10 Operates and, in this particular case, monitors or controls the distributed control system 22 within the process plant 10. Viewing or monitoring application 20 typically includes a user interface application that graphically depicts a process picture to each operator and maintenance technician and / or other users in a workstation such as workstations 30 and 32 using various displays. In this case, however, display application 20 provides graphical representations to users using display objects or graphical display elements, so that, for example, each operator and maintenance person has a display formed of similar graphical display elements and can view specific Process information that pert...

Abstract

A display configuration system enables a graphical designer to create reusable template graphical display elements that can be easily modified by, for example, other graphical designers with less experience in graphical design programming, such that the modified graphical display elements can reflect one of various different possible functionalities of plant equipment or plant usages to which the modified graphical display element is to be tied during operation. The display configuration system includes a graphical design application that enables the creation of generic or library graphical elements that include basic graphical functionality associated with particular types of plant equipment or associated with particular types of graphic display functionality and includes a configuration form editor that enables a user to create quick configuration forms that define predetermined potential modifications to be made to the template graphical element when creating a usage from the template graphical element.
