Marks and image data that do not need to be changed can be written directly to
the screen.
Character strings stored in the character string memory table can be dis-
played. The display characters can be changed by changing the data stored in
the character string memory table.
Numbers stored in the numeral memory table can be displayed. The display
numbers can be changed by changing the data stored in the numeral table.
Hexadecimal values can be displayed.
Lamps can be used to indicate operating status. Squares, circles, fans, and
polygons can be used. They are controlled by the PC and can be lit (reversed)
or made to flash (alternates normal and reversed displays).
Touch switches can be set anywhere on the screen. Pressing the part of the
screen where a touch switch has been set can have the following effects: Noti-
fication of the fact that the switch has been pressed to the PC (PC notification
function); screen switching; input of a numerical value or character string (input
key function); copying of a numerical value or character string (copy key func-
tion); shifting to another numerical value or character string input field (cursor
moving key function); and obtaining a hard copy of the screen (screen print key
function). Touch switches are controlled from the PC and can be made to light
or flash in the same way as lamps.
Bar graphs, trend graphs, and broken line graphs can be displayed according
to the numerical values stored in numeral memory table. These values can
also be represented as percentages displayed together with the graphs.
