Design the HMI Panel with KVB



  • Do not modify Project Name and Title to keep consistency between Kollmorgen Visualization Builder (KVB) and the KAS-IDE.

Add Object

You can drag-and-drop predefined objects from the library to the screen. The library is located in the Home tab of Kollmorgen Visualization Builder.

Customize Object

Select an object and click the General tab to customize:

  • its settings in the Settings section
  • its style to a different template in the Style section

Map Variable to the Object

In the General tab, you can set the Variable or Tag that maps to the current object in the Tag/Security section.



  • Click the F1 key to open the Kollmorgen Visualization Builder online help (or use the Help button in the ribbon tab heading)


  • Be aware that as soon as you change the PLC variables exported for the HMI, the mapping file must be re-imported in Kollmorgen Visualization Builder to have an up-to-date version.
