ModulesIWS Training GuideModulesIWS has various modules and tasks that can operate in a runtime environment to implement a user application. Manyof these modules and tasks operate in a background mode.GraphicsGraphical screen display is one of the most basic functions performed by InduSoft Web Studio, providing a windowinto the machine or process operational status. This capability is generally described as the Human-MachineInterface (HMI).InduSoft Web Studio allows you to create applications that can monitor processes using high-resolution colorscreens. The InduSoft Web Studio graphic tools consist of two modules:• The Screen/Worksheet Editor on the InduSoft Web Studio desktop (used to create or import graphicalScreens)• The application run-time Viewer that displays the Screen(s)Each Screen can use a number of Static and Dynamic Objects. These Objects can (optionally) have Propertiesassociated with them that give them dynamic effects, such as changing color, size, rotation, etc., based on thevalue or a tag or expression.Screens can have an optional bitmap that acts as a background in the object window. On the following screen forexample, the static images can be part of a bitmap in the background object and objects with animation in thedynamic object layer can reflect the changes in the plant, giving the illusion that the screen is three-dimensional.Sample CEView Emulation ScreenAll InduSoft Web Studio runtimes require a Windows-compatible pointing device, such as a mouse or touchscreen.
