--[[image:Screenshot 2025-12-04 at 14.44.04.png||height="421" width="343"]]
--
--Figure 5.5. Tag statuses
--
--For example, two statuses can be used: when the telemeasurment TI value is received in real time (i.e., 1 – Normal), and when the telemeasurment TI value is entered manually by the user (i.e., 4 – Manual input).
--
--Real parameter data for binding:

--This element changes the background color depending on the incoming value and the status of the parameter, if the condition TI=0 is met, then the color is green, if the condition TI=1 is met, then the color is red, if there is no data, then the color is white (see Fig. 5.6).

--Create the following rules:
--
--Rule No. 1 (fill in green with the value of TI = 0):

--== 5.2. Binding devices to the diagram ==
--
--There are several device status values:
--
--0 – Disabled,
--
--1 – Normal,
--
--2 – Device has data errors,
--
--3 – Device is unavailable,
--
--4 – Data with manual input available,
--
--7 – Waiting for data,
--
--9 – Status is missing.
--
-- The device is bound to the diagram by selecting **Device status** from the menu item. The content of the rules is similar to the example described above with changing the color of an object (in the** Condition** field, select the desired type of parameter, specify the device address, specify the operator and enter a numeric value equal to one or another status, and then specify the **Action **to be applied to the condition being fulfilled, for example, see Fig. 5.11).

--
--== 5.3. Binding parameters to information model objects ==
--
--To create an information model, see the "Information model setup manual".
--
--For example, create a square element (to serve as a switch) and describe the rules for it. In this example, the square changes the background color depending on the incoming parameter of the information model object, which refers to the value from the CENTO database.
--
--The sequence of bindings to the parameters of an information model object is like the actions for binding to tags: instead of **Tag value** and **Tag status,** select the** IM attribute** and **IM parameter status**, see Fig. 5.12.
