5-1-5 Switching Screens by Extended I/O Input at Each Screen

It is possible to make a setting so that the specified screen is displayed when the
input of the extended I/O that is connected to the PT is turned ON. The following
two setting methods are provided to switch the screen by extended I/O input.
Note that this setting is possible only for NT30 and NT30C.
Common setting for all screens:
Regardless of the screen presently displayed, the specified screen is always
displayed when the extended I/O input is turned ON.
Select [Table] from [Tools] in the menu bar. Then click the tab of Extended I/O
Input to set the Switch screen.
Setting for the individual screens:
It is possible to set the screen to be displayed in response to turning ON of the
extended I/O input for each screen.
For this setting, select [Extended I/O] from [Screen] in the menu bar.
For example, this setting allows the display screen to change sequentially from
screen No. 1 to screen No. 2, then to screen No. 3 in response to turning ON of
the extended I/O input. If the extended I/O input 0 goes ON while screen No. 1
displayed, the screen switches to screen No. 2, then if the extended I/O input 0
goes ON while screen No. 2 displayed, the screen switches to screen No. 3. To
allow screens to be changed in this way, set [Switch Screen No. 2] for [Ex-
tended I/O] at screen No. 1, and [Switch Screen No. 3] for [Extended I/O] at
screen No. 2.
Here, only the setting for screen switching at the individual screens is described.
Operations of the Extended I/O Input table and the common setting to all screens
are described in 7-5 Extended I/O Input Table.
The procedure for setting the screen to be displayed on turning ON of the ex-
tended I/O input at each screen is shown below.
(1) Select the screen for which [Extended I/O] is to be set to place the screen in
edit enabled state.
(2) Select [Screen] in the menu bar, then select [Extended I/O].
An extended I/O input table dialog box is displayed.
(3) Select the extended I/O input row where setting is to be done, and click on
.
