General Information

Direct binding

In mapp View, a binding is defined as the connection of data from a data source to an element in the HMI application. In most cases, data points from the controller (IEC variables, process variables) are bound to output elements in the HMI application (widgets). A binding always consists of a source and target. Changes to the data at the source automatically cause the data to be forwarded to the target. Binding files are added under mappView in the ConfigurationView. It is good practice to create one binding file for each HMI page. Starting with mappView version 5.4. initial direct binding can be done in the Automation Studio editor. Changes to a existing binding still has to be made in the text editor.

Event binding

Information regarding the event triggered binding. What triggers an event, what actions can be performed. Event binding files are added under mappView in the ConfigurationView. It is good practice to create one event binding file for each HMI page.
