2-8 Numeral Editing

Screens can be create that allow numeric inputs from the PT to the host. These screens are called numeral editing screens. Input values are desig- nated on-screen via function keys or touch switches or from Expansion I/O Units (32/64 Terminals or 12-key Function Key Units). The number of digits that can be input and the number of digits transmitted to the host can be set. Also, the Keypad setting in the screen attributes can be set to ªuserº to en- able flexible layout of input keys

A maximum of 50 numeral edit settings can be made per screen.

The procedure for creating numeral editing areas depends on whether or not direct connection is ON or OFF in the Tool Settings. Both procedures are giv- en below.

Note 1. Numeral editing screens cannot be used as child screens for continuous screens.

2.Numeral editing cannot be used if bit input is enabled in the display attrib- utes for PT with function keys or without touch switches.
