Central Engineering

In zenon many properties and attributes can be defined centrally and then are available anywhere in the project. The great advantage of this solution: A central change suffices for the entire project.

Threshold values, for example, can be defined locally with each single variable. Reaction matrices define threshold values centrally. If such a threshold value of a reaction matrix is changed centrally, this change automatically applies to all variables referring to that matrix.

Another example are pictures. Pictures. Many of their properties, such as position on the screen, background color, etc. are based on templates. If a status line has to be subsequently inserted in an existing project, one single change in the central template will create the required space in the screen layout. Once functions have been defined centrally, they are available in any location. The same is true for fonts, VBA macros for the Runtime, and much more.
