I know about many threads in this board about HMI performance, but however i decided to make one more.
I already developed two projects using iX T10A Panel in pair with GE PLC (com via GE SRTP TCP/IP) and Panasonic PLC (com via Matsushita-Mewtocol COM).
Both projects has the same problem with screen performance. Data exchange with PLC wasn't enough fast in beginning, but I've been solved this problem.
Now, I have a question about screen graphic elements performance (may be about execution time).
Screens of both my projects are opening about 2-10 seconds after they have been called. In each screen placed about 50 objects now ( couple hundred shapes and lines, and about 100 tags are used for animation of each screen)
I have a lot of dynamically changing objects on most of screens and of course it is a reason of lags.
I haven't enough time for testing graphic elements performance and I'm asking you to answer:
Which elements are need more time for execution? And how big is the difference?
- Colour changed bounds, background AnalogValue fields
- polygons with dinamically changing bounds and background colours
- MultiPicture with just Value field in front of it.
- Will do it have more performance with using scripts?
- What about static objects: it's better to use background PIC or few static line and shapes?
I'm sorry for my English, I'm only learning now
