You can use this function in the browser-based PI sheet or in the process manufacturing cockpit to display values defined as variables that are usually processed in the background (such as variable values from calculation formulas).
You can display the value of a variable in the process instruction if the variable has been defined as follows::
In one of the preceding process instructions
In the same process instruction
In one of the succeeding process instructions
For more information, see Using Variables in Browser-Based PI Sheets and Cockpits .
In the process instruction, you define a variable value after the input value after which you want to display it in the PI sheet or cockpit. To do so, you assign the following characteristics to the process instruction:
