Panels |
Number of panels/popup windows (limit) |
The number of panels that can be created in a project depends on the amount of flash memory available on your target machine and on the size of each panel. For example, you can have a project on an XBTGT6330 target that contains 100 panels.
As the number of panels for your project increases, memory consumption also increases. |
Number of objects on a panel (recommended) |
The number of objects that can be placed on a panel depends on the target machine's panel height and width. For example, you can have a project on an XBTGT6330 target that contains 200 objects per panel.
As the number of objects placed on a panel increases, memory consumption also increases. |
Popup windows (limit) |
Number of popup windows that can be displayed at run time: maximum of 3, which includes the popup keypad. |
Large Toolchest parts |
On some targets, large parts placed on a panel may cause a wait time to occur when changing panels. For example, on an XBTGC 2230U, switching from one panel to another panel with a Web Browser took several seconds. |
Actions |
Maximum number of actions |
100 |

Alarms and Events |
Number of Alarm Groups and Event Groups in a Target (limit) |
32 max. |
Number of Alarm Categories and Remote Categories in a Target (limit) |
32 max. |
Number of event records in an event group (limit) |
The number of event records you can store in each event group is 10,000 max. Events are recorded in both History and Log, which results in having two event records for each event that occurs. For example, if you set 10,000 as the maximum number of total records, you can only store 5000 events. |
Number of alarms in alarm groups (limit) |
The number of Log and History alarm records you can store in each alarm group is 10,000 max.
In the Alarms node, when Backup Alarm Group is set to No, you can store up to 80,000 total Log and History alarms in a target's alarm groups.
When Backup Alarm Group is Yes, the number of alarms is limited by the space available on SRAM. |
Number of alarms in an alarm category (limit) and remote category |
60,000 |
Alarm Backup
The size required by each alarm message depends on the alarm type.
Active: 20 bytes per record
History: 24 bytes per record
Log: 16 bytes per record |
SRAM Capacity (Backup) is different for each target machine type.
128 to 512 KB (Depends on model. Refer to your hardware manual.)
For information about how much SRAM is required by your project, see Section 4.5.1, Target Properties. |

NOTE:
- The Maximum Number of Shared Variables is the recommended maximum number of variables that is shared at any one time NOT the maximum number of Sharing-enabled (Read-only or Read/Write) variables. In other words, the number of variables that you set to Read-Only or Read/Write has no limits; only the number of variables that are accessed by other targets is limited. Performance may become an issue if you exceed the recommended maximum.

Driver Restrictions on Windows Target Machines |
Biometric Switch |
The Biometric Switch's USB driver currently does not support Windows target machines running on embedded Windows operating systems, including Windows XP Embedded and Windows Embedded 7. |
Drivers not supported on target machines that run Windows operating systems |
The following drivers are not supported on Windows operating systems, and therefore Windows target machines cannot connect to physical equipment using these drivers. Simulation in Buildtime is also not supported.
Schneider Electric:
- Modbus TCP/IP USB
- Modbus Plus
- Modbus Slave RTU
- FIPIO
- FIPWAY
