Although screen data for the NS5-MQ0[]-V2 is displayed in 16 grayscale levels on the CX-
Designer displays and the NS5-MQ0[]-V2 screen, the data will be displayed in color if it is
converted to data for a PT model with color displays on the CX-Designer or transferred to a PT
with a color display screen. The color codes that are used when creating the screen data for the
NS5-MQ0[]-V2 will be displayed for screen data and the image colors will be used for BMP and
JPEG data.
