GLOBAL SYNCHRONIZATION OF TIME IN GRAPHICAL DISPLAYS OF A HUMAN MACHINE INTERFACE

摘要

A method for synchronizing time in a plurality of graphical displays provided within a human-machine interface (HMI) includes displaying stored data via the plurality of graphical displays, receiving data refresh configuration parameters via a configuration tool within the HMI, and storing the data refresh configuration parameters in a memory. The method also includes generating, by the HMI, a data refresh message that includes the data refresh configuration parameters, and refreshing, by at least a portion of the plurality of graphical displays, display of the stored data based on the data refresh configuration parameters.
