9300 Series User’s Guide Before Customizing the Front Panel
Chapter 2 - Using The Front Panel Page 39
Links to a Display module can be made using Designer or the front panel. Each
Display module has one setup register, Display Type, which sets the number of
parameters that the display screen will show.
The Display Type setup register has five options: ONE PARAMETER, TWO
PARAMETER, THREE PARAMETER, FOUR PARAMETER, AND DISABLED. The number of
inputs for the Display module should match the Display Type setup register.
If you select a Display Type with more parameters than are currently linked to the
Display module, the display screen will show any unavailable inputs as N/A. If a
Display Type is selected which has fewer parameters than are linked to the
module, the Display module will only display the Display Type number, and will
break any links to parameters that it cannot display.
For example, if you have a display screen with four parameters, and you select a
Display Type of One Parameter, the first parameter is displayed and the other three
links to the ION Display module are severed.
Display Options Module
The Display Options module controls data display settings such as backlight
timeout, automatic display scrolling, parameter update rate, and display mode.
Settings in the Display Options modules are global, and affect all of the front panel
display screens. Refer to “Display Configuration” on page 50 for the Display
Options module’s default setup register settings.
