What is the PlantPAx Library of Process Objects?
The PlantPAx Library of Process Objects is a predefined library of
controller code (Add-On Instructions), display elements (global objects), and
faceplates that let you quickly assemble large applications with proven
strategies, rich functionality, and known performance.
Step 2: Create andconfigure AOI
Step 3: Create global display and assign to AOI
Step 4: Access faceplate forruntime control and maintenance
Step 1: Import the PlantPAx Library into Project
