Chapter 3 Creating and Editing Screens
3-140 Revision May, 2010
Property Description of Character Display Element
String Length
The range is with 1 ~ 28 words.
Set the read address as Internal Memory 0, i.e. $0, set the string
length to 6, and create three Numeric Entry elements. Then, set the
data format of these three Numeric Entry elements as hexadecimal
and enter the value as follows:
$0 = 4241(Hex)
$1 = 4443(Hex)
$2 = 4645(Hex)
Then, the above screen will display.
Please note that character display element reads the Byte value, and
the data length of the internal memory $ address is Word, which is
composed of two Bytes. Therefore, one Word can represent two
Bytes. However, as the high byte and low byte of the value that read
by the character display element will be exchanged, when reading
the Internal Memory $0 (=4241 (Hex)), the real display character will
become “AB” and vise versa. Please refer to the following table.
