GP-2401/2501/2601 Series User Manual
A GP2000 Series unit can display one
Global Window
and two
Local Windows
at
any one time. The Global Window is common to all the display screens. The
Local Window displays exclusively on a designated base screen. The GLOBAL
WINDOW SETUP is described here.
GLOBAL WINDOW
Two options are available:
Use
and
Do Not Use
. If you select
Do Not Use
,
ignore the items described below. Selecting
Use
enables the following options.
GLOBAL WINDOW ACCESS
Use this feature to designate whether values used by the GP are DIRECT or
INDIRECT, i.e. the REGISTRATION NO. and the LOCATION values. When
set as Direct, the REGISTRATION NO. and LOCATION selections are fixed to
the values entered here. When set to Indirect, the WINDOW REG. NO.'s word
address is used by the SYSTEM AREA as a variable. This means the REGIS-
TRATION NO. written to it changes and, as a result, can call up multiple window
screens as Global windows. You can also use this method to adjust the Global
window's position by writing the desired X,Y coordinates to the SYSTEM AR-
EA's LOCATION word addresses.
DATA FORMAT
Setup whether the REGISTRATION NO. and the LOCATION values are BIN or
BCD values. This field is related only to indirect values.
REGISTRATION NO.
Enter the Window Screen Number used by the Global Window. This field is
enabled only when GLOBAL WINDOW ACCESS is set to direct.
WINDOW LOCATION
Enter the value used for the (Global WINDOW) LOCATION. This field is
enabled only when GLOBAL WINDOW ACCESS is set to direct. Use this
setting to designate the top left coordinate on the screen registered as a Global
Window. If you are installing the GP vertically, i.e. in portrait not landscape
mode, designate the bottom left coordinate instead
