2-1-4 Screen Attributes

Downloaded from Elcodis.com electronic components distributor
The PT allows attributes to be set for each screen, so that the function specified
by the attribute is executed when the screen is displayed. For example, when a
screen for which the buzzer attribute has been set is displayed, the buzzer
sounds.
Set the screen attributes as properties of each screen using the Support Tool.
The screen attributes that can be set are listed below. It is possible to set more
than one attribute for the same screen at one time.
• Backlight (Light/Flash)
