Hello
I am trying to set up a color set in EcoStruxure Operator Terminal Expert to use in our applications. As we have a standard we want to continue to use it otherwise it would be to much work. We send an INT to the HMI that will change the color, but we have already a standard to what each number is representing so need to change the color set to match it. This option does exist in vijeo designer where you can easily choice which color will show depending on the number. But I can't find anywhere that we can add our own color set or modify the ones that already exist. Is there a way to create our on color set that we can use in all our projects?

Hi
For this we have a converter in EOTE, where you can easily define the colors. Take a look on the PrintScreens:
Define the Converter with ColorID:
Add the Converter to the Variable:

The sample of HattoriHanzo is good, alternativ you have also to use in this way not the colour ID you could also use instead the RGB colour code to be alinge with your CI

Thanks for your answers, this work perfectly!
One thing I will mention is that I did need to put the object to RGB colors first, then connect a converter with RGB. Otherwise the object would not change color if the converter was RGB and object was color ID.
