memory.
2. Create a PC program to write the number of the displayed screen to the
"screen switch setting word" in the PT status control area.
Use a 4-digit BCD (binary-coded decimal) value to set a screen number.
If a screen has been switched by operating the PT status control area (PC to PT),
the contents of the "currently displayed screen word" in the PT status notify area
(PT to PC) also change.
S Screen switching timing
The NT11S screen switches when the contents of the "screen switch setting"
have changed. To re-specify the number of the currently specified screen, first
write the value 0000 to clear the screen before writing the appropriate screen
number.
S Use of the screen switching strobe
Create a program to read the number of the currently displayed screen and to
write the number to the "screen switch setting word" at the leading edge of the
"screen switching strobe" of the PT status notify area. This program enables
screen switching by using the Menu screen on the NT11S and eliminates re-
peated setting of the same screen number. If the screen switching is not
executed on the NT11S, the screen switching strobe does not need to be
checked.
For the screen switching strobe, refer to the "notifying the displayed screen to the
PC" mentioned below.
This example operates the PC switch (bit) to switch the NT11S display screen.
