Trigger Address Design Tips:
LB 9000 to LB 9009 are internal bits that are set to 1 at power up. These bits can be used for Trigger addresses
so that the ASCII Input Extend parts are always active.
Have the PLC check a register for a password value and use a PLC bit to activate the ASCII Input Extend for
added security.
Attribute: Select to Left or Right justify the ASCII characters as they are displayed.
2. Go to Shape Tab: Select Shape or Bitmap to be used as a background button. The button is used to identify the part as
an input part as opposed to just a regular data display. The button changes state when pressed.
3. Go to Font Tab: Fill in the Color and Font attributes of the displayed data.
4. Click OK to place the ASCII Input Extend part on the window. Position the ASCII Input Extend part and resize it if
necessary. Adjust the number position as a label.
Note: Refer to Section 2: Software Reference Guide for details about completing each tab item
ASCII Input Extend Design Tips:
1. Use the ASCII Input Extend part to enter Names for recipes.
2. Create a message area on the screen that the operator can use to leave brief text messages about machine operation.
