To define the screen specific keys :
You can define the keys task, specific for the screen while editing the screen. You can click on
the key to be redefined and configure the task as needed.
H
ow are screens defined?
Screen texts can be configured by using the Edit-Screens menu or by clicking on the Screen tool.
First the software will prompt you to enter the screen number to be edited or defined. If it is a
new screen, then you will be asked to select type of screen i.e. normal, special, link screen or
function key.
The screen definition dialogue allows you to enter in your screen in a "what you see is what you
get" format. Simply type in your screen. To embed any dynamically animated register variable,
press the "Embed Register" button. It allows you to select the tag as well as format the
embedded data. It is possible to display register values in a bar graph format. Similarly, bit
sensitive text can also be entered by pressing the "Embed bit" button. The text when bit is ON as
well as when the bit is OFF can be entered here.
The screen dialogue allows editing of the screen attributes. Note that a scrolling screen can not
flash. If chaining is used then the "chained to" screen must be defined.
A list of screen texts called a link screen can be defined. It allows you to pick a list from the
already defined screens and these screens can be viewed by pressing the NEXT or PREV keys.
This mode can be simulated in the software itself. A standard Drag and Drop format can be used
for this definition.
