Zusammenfassung:A GUI framework leverages interfaces of extensible engineering platforms to provide a tool that easily constructs HMIs for automation systems. The GUI framework can import existing GUI components and/or create new GUI components. The GUI framework can also combine basic GUI components to create complex composite GUI components. An import mechanism can also be employed to import existing GUI components by encapsulating them in common, reusable software code that is compatible with an extensible engineering platform. The GUI framework utilizes function blocks to represent the GUI components and automatically generates GUI function block networks with linking as required. This allows complex GUIs to be created with minimal user effort.
