2.12.3. Operation methods (Layout Edit)
■
Editing the layout data
1) Click the tab ([AutoDisplay], [Image], [Opt-Ptn], [Program], [Character] or [Group]) corresponding to the type of data
which is to be registered as the layout data. The [Selectable File List] of the data file which corresponds to the
selected tab is displayed.
2) Select the data to be registered from the [Selectable File List].
3) Place the cursor at the cell of the position where the data is to be registered in the layout data list.
4) When the [
←
] button is clicked, the data is registered from the [Selectable File List] into the layout data list. Repeat
these steps to create the layout data. Use the respective editing programs to create the data files on the data file list.
■
Saving the layout data
The displayed layout data is saved in the file.
Click the [Save] button.
⇒
The data is saved in the selected file and any existing data in that file is overwritten.
Click the [Save As] button.
⇒
The data is saved in a new file.
(*) When the data is to be used temporarily:
When the edited layout data is to be tested or when the layout data is to be used temporarily in the editing programs
started up from "VGBase," simply select the Close button and close the editing screen. If an attempt is made to close
"VGBase" without saving the data, a message which warns the operator of the loss of the post-edited layout data will
appear. At this time, save the data again.
■
Sending the data
1) Click the [Send] button. The "Transfer Data" data selection dialog box appears.
2) Select the data to be sent. Before sending it, check the data. (It takes time for all the data to be sent. To test sending
the data quickly, check [Character Data] or [Auto Display Data], and send it.)
3) Click the [OK] button.
4) The selected data is sent to the VG.
(*) The data is sent on the basis of the layout data information. Data numbers and code data which have not been set in
the layout data will not be sent. This means that the sent data will be registered and updated by the VG, but the
statuses of the data numbers and code data which are not sent will remain unchanged from the pre-transmission
statuses.
