Procedure for Creating and Using Library Data
The procedure for creating library data and registering them on a screen is de-
scribed briefly here. For details, refer to the operation manual of the Support
Tool.
Exit the library editor and register the library data.
Register the created library data for display.
Indirect Specification
With indirect specification, specify a numeral memory table containing the de-
sired hexadecimal code. The PT treats the contents of the specified numeral
memory table as a library code and displays the corresponding library. This func-
tion is very convenient when you want to change displayed libraries.
Since library codes are hexadecimal, the Storage Type of the numeral memory
tables that contain library codes must be set to binary and the values (library
code numbers) stored in the tables must be hexadecimal.

• A maximum of 12,288 library data can be created for one screen data file: each
of the library data is assigned any required code within the range 1000 to
3FFF (image/library code range) so that it can be managed and specified.

• A total of up to 256 image and library data elements (directly and indirectly spe-
cified) can be registered on one screen. (Same for window screen.) For an
overlapping screen comprising 8 child screens, the maximum is also 256.
• The maximum number of elements that can be registered for one library data is
65,535.
• The elements that can be registered in library data are the following fixed dis-
play elements: other elements cannot be registered.
Text, circles, arcs, sectors, polylines, polygons, rectangles, tiling, marks.
• The codes used for library data are dedicated for image/library data use.
Library data cannot be included in character strings in the same way that
marks can, unless the PT is in NT30/620 compatible mode.
• Library data that projects out of the screen area cannot be specified.
