PLC Program For Changing Screen in Omron HMI NT11

Omron HMI NT11 is a entry level HMI By Omron series of HMI. It has four Key-Buttons at the bottom side and full numeric keypad at the front Right Hand side. We can design screens with features having like lamp , data display , text display and data entry . But there is no Button for going to specific screen or changing screen i.e to go front and back in screens . This feature is provided in almost all of the HMI but in Omron NT11 we have to assign these property to one of the four keys at the Bottom.

As you can see in the picture of NT11 there are four keys namely F1 , F2 , F3 & F4 at the bottom side , generally we assign F1 to go back to previous screen and F4 to go to next screen and F2 , F3 are used for other purposes like ON/OFF etc. We have to write a suitable PLC program for this accordingly.Subscribe to PLC, HMI Programming and SCADA Tutorials by Email .
