Attribute Setting Configure settings when using the recipe function. For details, refer to “15 Recipes”. Other Configure settings when using each function.
Page 52: Process Cycle
Process Cycle Process Cycle The screen display speed during communication between the TS unit and the PLC depends on the number of parts (mainly the number of device memory addresses read from PLC) placed on the screen. When displaying more parts on the screen, the display speed and switch response may be slower. In such a case, it is possible to speed up the display process by differentiating between the data to be viewed in real time (high speed) and other parts (low speed).
Page 53: Processing Sequence In The Ts
1 System 1.2.2 Processing Sequence in the TS Processing in the TS unit is performed in the following order. • The TS analyzes screen data to be read from the PLC, and reads them in blocks. • All blocks corresponding to data set as high-speed are read in one cycle. •...
Page 54: One-Cycle Processing
Process Cycle 1.2.3 One-cycle Processing The device memory set for [System Setting] → [Hardware Setting] → [Read Area] is read first. Next, the data in the device memory set for the items on the screen is read and drawn. When operations of all the setting data have been performed, the screen display is completed.
Page 55: If Communication Is Slow
1 System 1.2.4 If Communication is Slow Try the following methods to speed up communication. Methods for Creating Screens Method Effect Consecutively allocate PLC device memory addresses that are used for the same The number of blocks decreases so the cycle time can be screen.
Page 56: List Of Internal Device Memory
List of Internal Device Memory List of Internal Device Memory Internal device memory is the device memory in the TS unit that is available to users. Since processing is done internally within the TS unit, communication speed can be made quicker by using for operations that do not require data communication with a PLC.

Numerical Display Numerical Display 5.1.1 Overview • Numerical data read from the PLC is displayed in real time on the screen in any of the following formats: DEC (w/o sign), DEC (with sign −), DEC (with sign +−), HEX (hexadecimal), OCT (octal), BIN (binary) and Real Number Type (decimal floating-point).
Page 177 5 Data Display • Device memory for offset value designation A single numerical display part can be used to show different data by switching the device memory address assigned to the part. This can help to reduce the number of screens or parts used and facilitate screen maintenance. Example: Displaying scheduled production volume, non-defective count, and defective count for a machine selected from No.
Page 178 Numerical Display • Specifying attributes using device memory The attributes (number of digits, decimal point, display type, or text color) of numerical display parts are easily changeable while MONITOUCH is in RUN mode. Example: Numerical data display D100 (no transparency) Change the decimal place from 0 to 1, text color from black to red, and background color from white to yellow.

Real Time Display 7.3.5 Asynchronous Display of Multiple Trend Graphs All the trend lines in the graph area are drawn at the same points and at the same timing because trend graphs have one word of control device memory. To draw multiple trend lines at different timings, two or more graphs must be overlaid and linked, thereby assigning priorities to respective control device memory.

11 Graphics 11.1.3 Graphic Display Color Display Modes When graphics are displayed on the screen, there are two types of display modes. • XOR: Graphic colors are XORed with the colors of the base screen. • REP: Original graphic colors are shown. Whether XOR or REP is used for the display state is determined by the mode and parameter settings.
Page 460 11.1 Graphics XOR Display Transparency (Pattern Transparency) Because animation on a graphic display is always XORed, it is impossible to display the same colors on the screen as initially set for the background color (other than black). Additionally, because the XORed color is affected by the base color, when animation is performed on multiple background colors, the color changes whenever the background does.
