hat do the keys do?

 

 
The keys on the 

NT2S B 

can perform user defined functions.  The same keys can be used to 

change data or to scroll through a list of screens.  The operation of keys depends on the type of 
screen being displayed as follows:

Link  

NEXT and PREV keys are used to scroll through the list of screens.  

 

Other keys act as function keys. 

 
For all both line screens, the keys can be redefined to perform user defined task which can be 
different from global key task.

 

 

H

ow are LEDs controlled?

 

 
The 

NT2S B

 scans a user definable register called the LED register.  The least significant 2 bits in 

this register are mapped  to the LEDs.  If a bit is ON, the corresponding LED is turned ON. 

 

H

ow can data be entered?

 

 
There are two ways to edit data using the 

NT2S B

. One way is to use function keys.The function 

keys can download a constant or can increment/decrement assigned register value or can 
change a coil status.  However, the number of keys is limited.
