Right Heat Pump

Right heat pump SCADA symbol

The Right heat pump widget renders a heat pump with pipe connectors and controls positioned on the right side of the symbol. It displays the current temperature, animates the fan when the pump is running, and exposes a power button and temperature setpoint controls for direct HMI Device interaction from the dashboard.

This widget belongs to the Traditional SCADA fluid system bundle — a collection of pipe segments, fittings, valves, pumps, and gauges designed for building fluid system diagrams on iRis Cloud dashboards. It represents a heat pump with a temperature display, fan rotation animation, a power button for remote start/stop control, and color-coded warning and critical states.

  • Display the current temperature value with a configurable range and step-increment controls.
  • Animate the fan rotation when the pump is in the running state.
  • Start or stop the pump remotely using the on-widget power button.
  • Update the temperature setpoint directly from the dashboard using the up/down controls.
  • Indicate warning and critical states with configurable colors.
  • Animate a blinking effect when the pump is in critical state.
  • Trigger a dashboard action when the widget symbol is clicked.
  • Receive state data from HMI Device attributes, time series, alarm status, or dashboard state.

The widget connects to a single data source: either a Device or an Entity alias that resolves to a HMI Device. This HMI Device provides the telemetry or attribute values used to drive the widget’s visual state.

The SCADA symbol defines the visual shape of the widget. Each heat pump widget has a pre-selected symbol from the Traditional SCADA fluid system bundle. To use a different symbol, click Browse SCADA symbol from gallery and choose one from the library, or upload your own.

Behavior parameters control what the widget displays and what actions it sends to the connected HMI Device. See Read parameter configuration and Write parameter configuration for the full configuration details.
