Object 'WebVisu'

Symbol:

Function: This object is used for configuring the web-based display variant for remote display of the visualization of the controller in a web browser. This allows for remote access, remote monitoring, as well as service and diagnostics of an application over the Internet.

Requirement: The object is inserted below the visualization manager, and the target system has a web server with CODESYS WebVisu support. The web server allows for the communication between the target system and the web browser.

Execute as CODESYS WebVisu

Start Visualization	Name of the visualization where the start is displayed as CODESYS WebVisu. Hint: Use input assistance for selecting another visualization.
Name of the .htm file	Base URL of the web page. The URL is also specified as the address in the web browser. Example: `http://localhost:8080/webvisu.htm` Note: If you use a BeagleBone Black as a visualization device, then you must note that a BeagleBone Black uses port 9090 for its web server. A valid IP address is as follows: `http://192.168.7.2:9090/webvisu.htm`
Use as default page	: The page specified in Name of .htm file is preset as the default page. Now this page will always open when a user specified in the web browser the IP address and port of the web server that is running on the controller: `http://<IP address web server>:<port web server>`. Example: `http://localhost:8080` Notice: Even if you have created multiple web visualizations, you can activate this option for exactly one web page only and therefore preset only one page as the default page.
Update rate (ms)	Refresh rate (in milliseconds) in the web browser
Default communication buffer size	Default size for communication buffer (in bytes). Defines the maximum available memory for data transfer between the web client and the web server. Example: `50000`
Show used visualizations	The link opens the Visualizations tab in the Visualization Manager editor. The tab provides information of the visualizations loaded on the display variants.

Scaling Options
Fixed	: Fixed size of the visualization. The values used are Client height and Client width.
Isotropic	: The size of the visualization is adapted to the dimensions of the web browser, retaining the proportions of the visualization.
Anisotropic	: The size of the visualization is adapted to the web browser.
Use scaling options for dialogs	The dialogs, also for keypad and numpad, are scaled like the visualization (drawn with the same scaling factor). This is an advantage when a dialog was created to match the visualization because then they are scaled together.
Client height	Height of the visualization (in pixels).
Client width	Width of the visualization (in pixels).

Presentation Options
Antialiased drawing	: Antialiasing is used when drawing the visualization in the web browser.

Default Text Input
Input with
Touchscreen	Text input on the WebVisu with touchscreen. The keypad or numpad dialog opens.
Keyboard	Text input on the WebVisu with an ordinary keyboard or a virtual keyboard (on Android OS for example)
Effect: When you configure a user input for default text input, select an input configuration for input action Write variable, and configure the Input type as Default, then the settings are used here.
