Data Input

This feature allows appropriate numeric keys for the input field to be displayed.
It is possible to create a temporary input field in addition to numeric keys.
(With the NT21 and with the NT31, NT31C, NT631, and NT631C "-V1" and
above, all objects other than thumbwheel switch and recipe objects can be
created on a window.)
S It is possible to create a temporary input field at the same time as numeric keys
are arranged in the window/keyboard.
A temporary input field is created using a character string input element.
When a character string input element is arranged in the window/keyboard, the
element is automatically set as a temporary input field.
Only one string input element (temporary input field) can be created for one
window/keyboard
S Setting processing differs as shown below depending on whether or not a tem-
porary input field is used.
