Option 9.1.1. Enter PRT Graphics General Information

Expand the Advanced folder.
Double-click Graphics Display.

A list box displays in the right pane.

Click in the right pane.

The PRT Graphics Display Configuration dialog box opens.

Select the General tab.

A	Region
B	Attribute
C	Operator
D	Value
E	Compare Type
F	Display Point
G	Element Per Location
H	Start Location
I	End Location
J	Item Class

Region

Select or create a new region using the standard Tracker region controls.

Attribute

Select the attribute you want to operate on.

Operator

The currently defined operators are:

Count operators

These operators will perform a count of attribute data matching the user specified value.

Equals (=)

Not Equals (!=)

Greater Than (>)

Greater Than Equal To (>=)

Less Than (<)

Less Than Equal To (<=)

Exists (%)

Contains ($)

Between (@)

Not Between (!@)

Display operators

A special operator that will simply copy the specified attribute for each item in the region to an array point.

Display (*=)

Value

Value entries depend upon the selected operator.

Count operators	Count up all attributes that meet the operator defined criteria.
Display operators	The value is not used.

E	Compare Type

Compare Type entries depend on the selected operator.

Count operators	The attribute value and the user value will be converted to this type and then the operator comparison will be performed.
Display operators	This field is not used.

F	Display Point

Display point entries depend on the selected operator.

Count operators	The Point may be numeric or text. The total of all items in the region matching the operator criteria will be entered into this field.
Display operators	This must be an array point. The point may be numeric or text. The data will be converted to match the point type. Each element in the array will represent a location in the region. The Item Class ID defined for this graphic display record will control filling of the array. If an Item Class is specified, the array will be filled front to back, starting at the first location, moving back to the last location or until the array limits are exceeded. There will be no holes in the array for empty locations. So if the user specified an item class of XXX and location 1, 2, 3, 5 each has had Item Type class, the array locations 1,2,3,4, will be filled. There will not be a blank location for location 4. If no Item Class is specified there will be one array location for each region location. If each region can hold 2 items and there are 4 locations in the region then the array would look like this:
	Array Offset	Item Location filling
	0	1
	1	1
	2	2
	3	2
	4	3
	4	3
	5	4
	6	4

Note: If a location only contains 1 item, the array will contain an empty element for the missing location.

Guidelines for display points:

Attribute	Point Guideline
PRT_ASSOC_ITEM	Text point that must define a text size of at least 20.
PRT_ITEM_ID	Text point that must define a text size of at least 20.
PRT_ITEM_STATUS	Analog point that must be of type ANALOG_U32.
PRT_ITEM_TYPE_ID	Text point that must define a text size of at least 20.
PRT_REFERENCE_ID	Text point that must define a text size of at least 20.
USER DEFINED	Text point with the number of region locations covered by the point equaling the number of elements in the array. Calculate elements as follows: End location – Start Location +1.

G	Element per Location

The same number as items per location.

The display views an array point that is designed to collect an element that is in a particular location.

For example a region has 10 locations. An array point has 10 elements. It can hold each location in an element. The point can hold 10 locations in the array.

H	Start Location

Starting location in the region where counting or displaying is to start.

Locations to send to a point		Enter
Going in the direction of the Start to End of region

All locations		Start location	0
All locations		End location	0
Range of specific locations		Start location	Number of the Start location.
Range of specific locations		End location	Number of the End location.
All locations after a start location		Start location	Number of the Start location
All locations after a start location		End location	0
	Example
	Start Location	1
	End Location	10
	Locations sent to a point	Locations 1 - 10.
Going in the direction of the End to Start of region
Range of specific locations		Start location	1 (End location in the region)
Range of specific locations		End location	<x> Where X is the number of locations to be included going from end to start.

I	End Location

Ending location in the region where counting is displaying is to end.

Attribute characters

Start	Starting position in the attribute value to be displayed
End	Ending position in the attribute value to be displayed.

J	Item Class

Leave blank for all. The item class to be included.

Click OK.

Result: The graphic display configuration is added to your Tracking Model.
