5-8 Numeral Setting

The NT600S has a “numeral setting” function to enable numerical values to be in- put from the screen. This function inputs numerical values to numeral memory tables in response to touch switch operations, displays these numerical values on the screen, and sends them to the host.

This section outlines the numeral setting function and the method for creating the ten keys required to set numerical values on the screen, and explains how to use ten keys during operation.

Numeral setting screens cannot be registered as child screens of continuous screens, In the case of overlapping screens, only one of the screens can be set as a numeral setting screen.

Caution In order to input numerical values using touch switches, apart from the display area for the numeral setting, the numeric keys must also be created. For details on how to create numeric keys, see “Creating Numeric Keys” (page 146).

Ensure the safety of the system before changing the monitor data.

5-8-1 Function of Numeral Keys

Basic ProcedureThe procedure for numeral setting is as follows.

(1)Input the numerical value using touch switches (numeric keys).

(2)The input numerical value is displayed in the numeral setting area on the screen.

(3)Confirm the input numerical value (by pressing the [ENT] key); it will be written to the numeral memory table, and simultaneously notified to the PC/Host.

Numerical values are displayed in NT600S the numeral setting area.

			memory table

PC

Host

Input the numerical values using the numeric keys on the screen.

When the [ENT] key is pressed, the input value is written to the numeral memory table and simultaneously notified to the PC/Host.

If there is more than one numeral setting area, the one in which the numerical val- ue is to be input can be selected by using a touch switch (numeric key).

Restrictions on Numerical Value Input and Attribute Setting

Numerical values of up to 8 digits (7 if there is a minus sign) can be input in either ￿decimal or hexadecimal format.

Decimal input

When the display attribute is set for decimal display, values are input in the deci- mal format.

-Numerical value range

The range for numerical values that can be input differs according to whether or not there is a sign display.
