Chapter 2 DME Designer Overview

DME Designer Owner’s Manual

 Toolkit Window

The Toolkit window displays the objects that you can use in each window that can be displayed in

the Designer window. Those windows are the Area, Zone, Configuration, and User Module

windows. The Toolkit displays different objects, according to the currently active window. To place

an object in a window, double-click it in the Toolkit window where it is displayed or drag it to the

currently active window.

 Navigator Window

The Navigator window displays the area, zones, configurations, and components in a hierarchal

fashion that lets you check their status as a whole. When editing offline, you can click an area

name, zone name, or configuration name to make that window active. Clicking a component name

will open the component editor window for that component.

 Resource Meter Window

This window provides an indication of component usage for each DME unit currently placed in the

Configuration window. The usage percentage increases as the number of components increases. The

component usage percentage is shown in graph form for each DME unit.

The window appears simultaneously with the designer window, and can be used as a component

usage guide while creating configurations. The sampling frequency for each DME unit is also

displayed. Please note that the sampling frequency of the DME unit itself will also affect the usage

percentage.

 Objects and Components

“Object” is the name for the parts that are arranged in the various design windows, such as the

Area, Zone, Configuration, and User Module windows. Objects are always laid out in the Toolkit

window. Only the appropriate objects for each window are displayed. The blocks displayed at the

higher level of the Toolkit window in particular are called “components.” This refers to each type of

processor that operates the DME. “Object” normally refers to Picture, Text, Ellipse and other items

that are used after connecting them by wire to the various components.

NOTE

In configurations that have a large number of connections, compilation might not be possible in some cases even if the

resource meter reading is less than 100%. To determine whether compilation is possible we recommend using the “Analyze”

dialog box (page 308) prior to actual compilation.

NOTE

This window is not displayed for SP2060 units.
