Changing Numeral and Character String Display
This section describes the procedure(s) for changing the contents of the numeral
and character string memory tables which are allocated to the host and also the
procedure for changing the display on the NT31/NT31C by operation at the host.
For the procedure for displaying the contents of the numeral and character string
memory tables at the NT31/NT31C, refer to 7-8 “Numeral Display” (page 357) and
7-9 “Character String Display” (page 366).
8-5-1
Changing Numeric Values and Character Strings
The NT31/NT31C provides the following methods for changing the contents in the
numeral and character string memory tables.
- Changing the contents of the allocated word of a numeral memory table
- Changing the contents of the allocated word of a character string memory
table
- Copying the contents by operation at the PT status control area
- Pressing a touch switch which has the “Copy Setting” function
Reference: It is possible to input the data to numeral memory tables and character string
memory tables by operation at the NT31/NT31C using the numeral setting func-
tion and the character string setting function.
For details of this operation, refer to 8-7 “Input of Numeric Values and Character
Strings” (page 518).
Changing the Contents of the Allocated Word of a Numeral Memory Table
By allocating a numeral table to a word in the host, it is easy to reflect changes
made at the word in the host to the numeral memory table.
With this method, however, only the contents of the allocated words of memory
tables being used for display on the current screen of the NT31/NT31C can be
read out. Contents of an allocated word which is not related to the display are not
read out.
