Switching Continuous Screens Using Touch Switches
When screen #8 is designated, screen #8 becomes the parent screen and
the child screens #10, #7, and #25 are displayed over the parent screen in
that order.
Only one numeral setting screen which allows numeric values to be set on the
NT20 screen can be registered as a child screen. For the numeral setting,
refer to 4-8 Numeral Setting (page 156).
Make sure that the touch switches and numbers set in the normal screens do
not overlap in an overlapping screen. If the set positions of the touch switches
and/or numbers in the normal screens overlap with each other, such settings
may sometimes not be effective as intended. Use the Support Tool and make
sure that the set positions do not overlap with each other.
A group of normal screens which are related in series and can be switched
consecutively is called the "continuous screens". Up to eight screens can be
registered to one screen as a group of continuous screens.
The base screen used for registering the continuous screens is called a "par-
ent screen", and the registered continuous screens are called "child screens".
The current screen number and the total number of continuous screens can
be displayed in the top right corner of the screen. This is called the "page
number display".
The page number is set when creating the screen data by using the Support
Tool. Refer to the "NT-series Support Tool for Windows Operation Manual"
(Cat. No. V061-E1-@).
All display elements except "numeral setting" can be used in the continuous
screens.
The screen attributes set in the parent screen become effective in the continu-
ous screens.

• Parent screen: #10
• Child screens: #20, #15, and #5
When screen #10 (continuous screen) is designated, screen #20 which is
page 1 of the continuous screens will be displayed. Screen #15 or #5 can
be displayed by using the touch switches. Since screen #10 has been set
for the continuous screens, that screen cannot be displayed as an individ-
ual screen.
Continuous screens can be switched by using the
which have the system key functions.
When creating the screen, create touch switches
