Printing
The printing function is accessed from two locations in the menu hierarchy.
The first, Print Cross-References, is on the initial menu after loading the
operating system disk. The other print operations are accessed from the
system operations menu. Flowcharts illustrating the locations of the print
function keys are included with the detailed explanations which follow.
In addition to the function keys for the print operation, a Print key is
available on the VPU200 keyboard. The Print key may be used any time,
except during the print operation, to print the currently displayed screen.
After pressing the PRINT (F2) function key, the arrangement of the function
keys in the PRINT hierarchy is as shown in Figure 8-1. The PRINT function
key appears on the screen of the VPU200 rather than on the keyboard and
is used to print entire groups of related information (such as Memory
Configuration charts, ladder logic programs, and synonyms).
Note that the mode of operation is important when using the PRINT
function key. The principal difference between the two modes is that
synonyms and comments can only be printed in the Offline mode. All other
categories may be printed regardless of the mode of operation.
