Stand-alone Operation

Section 2-15

 

 

 

 

Operation is basically the same as for copying with F1 except that the copy is

 

designated on the reference display and created on the creation display.

Area Set

F4 is used to fill in a designated area on the creation display.

 

Area designation is basically the same as for copying with F1.

Area Clear

F5 is used to clear all of the dots for a designated rectangular area on the

 

creation display. After being cleared, they are represented by small dots.

 

Area designation is basically the same as for copying with F1.

Inverse

F6 is used to reverse all of the dots on the creation display.

 

Area designation is basically the same as for copying with F1.

Save

F7 is used to register data in the creation display as a mark.

1, 2, 3... 1. Enter F7 (Save), the mark list will be displayed.

2.Specify the position in which to save the mark. If you specify a position that already contains a mark, the existing mark will be overwritten by the new one.

3.Press the Enter Key. Saving can be canceled by pressing the Escape Key.

 

You can confirm that the mark has been saved by pressing F1.

Ending Mark Creation

Press the Escape Key when finished creating mark to end mark creation and

 

return to the Screen Selection display. A confirmation display will appear.

 

Press the Enter Key to confirm or press the Escape Key to continue mark

 

creation.

 

Note Any data not saved when mark creating is ended will be lost. If ending mark

 

creation is canceled at the confirmation display, however, any unsaved data

 

will be maintained.

2-15 Stand-alone Operation

Stand-alone operation allows the PT touch switches, function keys, and Ex- pansion I/O Units to be used to switch screens without receiving instructions from a host. The Support Tool must be used to set up stand-alone operation.

Precautions

When screens are changed during stand-alone operation, a screen number

 

request response is sent from the PT to the host.

 

If the same key number is allocated in multiple child screens, the key will be

 

effective only in the child screen with the smallest screen number.

 

The following screen numbers can be set.

 

NT20M:

1 to 250

 

NT600M:

1 to 1,000

The following touch switches and function keys can be allocated.

Touch switches: 000 to 031

Function keys DF___: F1 to F12

Other: 01 to 31

Numeral editing will take priority if both numeral editing and stand-alone op- eration are specified for the same screen. Although both numeral editing and stand-alone operation use function keys and touch switch, the following li- mitation apply to stand-alone operation if numeral editing is also being used.
