To discard the new value edited (to hold
the old one) press ESC. This exits editing
mode.
The editing process is always done on a temporary variable so it does not affect anything if
You start an editing and then exit from it with ESC. During editing the device uses the
old/original variable value.
Types of the items or parameters:
• Decimal
An integer value representing something (meant in some unit or indexes different
modes). Consists of fix number of digits (all these digit characters are shown
inverse when selected as above in the example), has limits (minimal and maximal
value). (If a limit is violated in editing mode by changing a digit's value the value
is set to that limit independent of the edited digit.)
The example above shows this type of parameter.
• Real
Real value with two-digit fractional part. Edited the same as for the decimal type.
Between the integer and fractional parts there is a dot character.
For example:
The selected "AG speed RA" item in this screen
is real-type with a value of 0.5.
• Time
The default time-type variable is always meant in 0.1 sec unit and is displayed this
way.
For example:
The selected "exp.time" item on this screen is
time-type with a value of 3 minutes and 15.2
seconds.
In editing mode it behaves as the decimal type except that some digit's maximum
is only 5 (ie. 59 for the minutes) and there are dot and double dot characters
between the digits.
• Text
This type can not be edited as the other. Holds a fix text or the 'value' (state) of it
can be changed with the SET button. So the text can show the value or state of a
parameter.
