Characters and marks which do not need to be changed can be written directly to
the screen.

Character-strings stored in the character-string memory table are displayed. The
display characters can be changed by changing the data stored in the character-
string memory table.
Numeric Values (numeral tables)
Numbers stored in the numeral table are displayed. The display numbers can be
changed by changing the data stored in the numeral table. Hexadecimal values
can also be displayed.
Lamps
Lamps are displayed as square or round frames and indicate the operating status.
They are controlled by the Host and can be lit (reversed) or made flash (alternates
normal with reversed displays).
Touch Switches
Touch switches can be set anywhere on the screen. Touching the screen at a touch
switch location can switch the display (display switch function) or notify the Host
(notification function). The touch switches can be lit or made flash by controlling
from the Host in the same way as the lamps.
Numeric Keys
These are the touch switches used to input numeric values.
Bar Graphs
The bar graph extends and contracts in proportion to the data stored in the numer-
al table. A percentage value can also be displayed simultaneously.
Marks
Marks can be designed, created, and handled like characters by the user.
