1.6.5 Storing bitmaps in data management for HMI Advanced
New paths have been set up In data management (as
from HMI 6.2) for the different screen resolutions, so
that the bitmaps can be stored in parallel in various
sizes.
Standard cycles:
• dh\cst.dir\hlp.dir\640.dir
• dh\cst.dir\hlp.dir\800.dir
• dh\cst.dir\hlp.dir\1024.dir
Manufacturer cycles:
• dh\cma.dir\hlp.dir\640.dir
• dh\cma.dir\hlp.dir\800.dir
• dh\cma.dir\hlp.dir\1024.dir
User cycles:
• dh\cus.dir\hlp.dir\640.dir
• dh\cus.dir\hlp.dir\800.dir
• dh\cus.dir\hlp.dir\1024.dir
In accordance with the current resolution, the search
begins in the appropriate directory (for example in
dh\...\hlp.dir\640.dir for 640 * 480) and then moves to
dh\...\hlp.dir. Otherwise the search sequence cus.dir,
cma.dir, cst.dir applies.
1.6.6 Handling bitmaps for HMI Embedded
Function
With HMI Embedded, the bitmaps are incorporated in
the HMI software. So far they are grouped together in a
package, cst.arj, as with MMC100.2. Bitmaps can
always be integrated in *.bmp format. However, to save
more space and display faster, use a *.bin binary
format. To do this, you need the tools supplied with the
standard cycle software in the \hmi_emb\tools directory:
• arj.exe, bmp2bin.exe, and
• sys_conv.col
