tus notify area. Otherwise the system may operate unpredictably.
The NT11 has the "character-string memory table" for the character data and
the "numeral memory table" for numeric data which can be written and
updated by the PLC.
The contents of the memory tables can be set by using the support tool when
displaying the memory tables on the screen or by editing the table.
The character-string memory table is an NT11 internal memory used to store
the character data. Up to 128 character-string memory table entries can be
used, and up to 20 characters (20 bytes) can be stored in one memory table
entry. Character-string memory table entries at up to 8 positions can be regis-
tered in one screen.
The character-string memory table entries are registered with table entry
numbers 0 to 127.
When creating the screen data by using the support tool, set the position on
the screen to display a character-string and also set a character-string num-
ber to be displayed.
When the NT11 is operated, the screen displays the contents of the charac-
ter-string memory table entry.
The power of expression of the screen can be increased by giving various
attributes such as the enlarged or reverse display to the characters of a char-
acter-string memory table entry.
The character attributes can be set in the edit screen when creating the
screen data by using the support tool.
