Title: Digital counter Display
Post by: bowman@bcs4support.com on April 19, 2021, 04:02:18 PM

I have a pulse counter for a flow meter that totalizes pulses to display in gallons.  The accuracy of the counter in the PLC is to 5 decimal places.  I only want to see he hole number portion in the HMI display.

How to display only the hole number portion of the PLC data?

Thanks is advance.

With a BasicLabel you can set the ValueScaleFactor to 0.0001

I am using the AnalogValueDisplay if that makes any difference.  The values in the memory location in the PLC can be 608.59756.  I only want to display the 608 portion.

Sorry if I got you confused.  Any suggestions?

Thanks

Use its NumericFormat property and set it to "0000" (the number of 0 characters can be equivalent to the number of digits of the highest rounded received value but can also be more or less than that number).

In the NumericFormat property just put N0.
This way it follows the numeric format of your system.
If you want 1 decimal place it will be N1, N2 for 2 decimals and so on
