Input of Numeric Values and Character Strings
Section 8-7
Reference
- If a temporary input field is set in a window, the input is automatically set in the
temporary input field.
When multiple windows are opened and the each window has an input field
(temporary input field), the data is set in the input field in a focus window.
For details of focus window, refer to “Focus Window” (page 444).
- In the initial state, the initial state content of the objective input field is displayed
in the temporary input field.
- The objective input field on the base screen maintains the initial state display
until the input is confirmed.
(5) Press the ENT key in the “input key – control” or the key to confirm the input.
When the input is confirmed, the input numeric value is stored to a numeral
memory table. Then, the occurrence of a change in the contents of the nu-
meral memory table is notified to the host via the PT status notify area (page
276).
Reference
- If the objective input field is shifted before confirming the input, the input numer-
ic is canceled and the screen returns to the one displayed before the numeric
value was input.
- If the “upper/lower (max./min.) limit check” function is set for the numeral setting
input field, it is checked if the input numeric value falls within the specified range
when the input is confirmed. If the numeric value is outside the specified range,
the buzzer sounds three times, the input numeric value is canceled, and the
screen returns to the display before starting the input. In this case, neither writ-
ing to a numeral memory table nor notification to the host is executed.
S
Restrictions on using a temporary input field
- For a thumbwheel type numeral input field, it is not permissible to use a tempo-
rary input field.
- If the number of digits in a temporary input field is smaller than the number of
digits (integer part fraction part decimal point digit + sign digit)
necessary for the objective input field on the base screen, the input is made
within the range of the number of digits in the temporary input field.
- If an input field does not exist on the base screen, a temporary input field is not
displayed.
