7-3 Character String Memory Table (String Table)
The character string memory table (String table) is an area provided in a PT to
store character string data.
A character string memory table entry (string table) is allocated to 1 to 20 words in
a PC (PLC) and a character string memory table entry (string table) used for dis-
play can be shared by the PT and the PC (PLC).
It is possible to insert mark data, image data or library data into a character string.
Note that, however, NT11S/NT11, NT20, NT20S and NT600S do not have image
data and library data. With the NT21, NT31, NT31C, NT631, and NT631C with-
out NT20/30/620-compatible mode, it is not permissible to insert image data and
library data into a character string.
With elements such as character string display and character string input, read-
ing/writing of character string data is executed by specifying the character string
memory table entry (string table) number.
