Input Mask Output Examples - AMX NXD-1000Vi Operation/Reference Manual



When data overflows from a numerical field, the overflow value is added to the previous field on the chain, if
the overflow character was specified.
In the above example, if the overflow flag was set, the first example will place the "1" into the previous logical
field and the second example will place "12" in the previous logical field. If the overflow filed already contains
a value, the new value will be inserted to the right of the current characters and the overflow field will be
evaluated. Overflow continues to work until a filed with no overflow value is set or there are no more fields left
(i.e. reached first field).
If a character is typed and that characters appear in the Next Field list, the keyboard should move the focus to
the next field. For example, when entering time, a ":" is used as a next field character.
If you hit "1:2", the 1 is entered in the current field (hours) and then the focus is moved to the next field and 2
is entered in that field.
When entering time in a 12-hour format, entry of AM and PM is required. Instead of adding AM/PM to the
input mask specification, the AM/PM should be handled within the NetLinx code. This allows a programmer
to show/hide and provide discrete feedback for AM and PM.

Example 1: If you type "125" into a field accepting 0-100, then the values displayed will be "1",
"12", "25".
Example2: If the max for the filed was 20, then the values displayed will be "1", "12", "5".
