Web Data Binding Parameters

The parameters are given in the same format as CSS styles. Parameter names, a colon character (:) and the property value.

For example, to set the point and postfix parameter, you'd use…

ardibind="point: Paint Line.Speed - Actual;postfix: m/min"

The name of the ARDI point, in the format asset name . property name. For instance, the 'Speed - Actual' property of the 'Paint Line' asset would be Paint Line.Speed - Actual.

Chooses a JQuery function to use when setting the property. By default this is css if you've given any attribute name. You can also use attr to set non-CSS attributes, or text or html to set the content of the XML node.

Note that if you don't specify a type and you also don't specify the name of the CSS attribute you want to set, the system asssumes you want to set the text on the element.

Text content added before the value.

Text content added after the value

Rounds a number to the required number of decimal places.

Using mininput, maxinput, minoutput and maxoutput allows you to re-scale the figures. This is very useful when making barcharts, converting to percentages or doing other tasks that need you to map between different units or sizes.

Mapping allows you to convert incoming values to specific output values. This is often used for statuses or digital readings.

The format of the map is as follows…

default value,threshold comparison result

For example, if you wanted to display something that was black by default, red when 1 and green when 2, your map would be…

black,1=red,2=green

Likewise, if you wanted it to be red by default and green if more than 20, you could use…

red,20>green
