Introduction
The LCD display of the TP-10 is able to display user-programmed text messages.
These messages will be displayed according to the commands of the PLC program
residing in the Serratrón.
To achieve this, we will use:
•
The “TP-10 Editor” application to edit the message table and send it to the TP-10.
•
The centralisation software to edit the PLC program.
•
A Serratrón with a PLC able to manage the TP-10 in message mode.
To activate the TP-10 message system, go to the TP-10 configuration menu and select
the option:
•
Messages:
YES

Operation of the TP-10 in message mode
In this mode, the TP-10 will display the messages ordered by the Serratrón. When
there are no specific messages to be displayed, the TP-10 will display the message
which the user has defined as the default message using the “TP-10 Editor” program.
The user can go to the parameter programming screen of the Serratrón at any time
using the F+F1 key combination. The TP-10 will remain in this display mode until:
•
10 minutes have passed during which the user does not press any key.
•
The user presses F+F1 again.
The TP-10 will then return to message mode.
