Creating Input Settings
Section 4-9
Reference:
Temporary input fields
Only one numeral or character string setting input field can be registered for a win-
dow (screen number in the range 1900 through 1979). This input field can be used
−
in combination with a number of numeral and character-string input fields on
base screens
−
for provisional input before any data is input into the actual input
field on the base screen. This kind of numeral or character-string input field in a
window is called a “temporary input field”.
Its advantage is that entries can be input into the temporary input field while check-
ing the current setting on the base screen.
However, if the temporary input field in the window and the input field on the base
screen are not of the same type, the temporary input field will not be displayed.
Note also that temporary input fields cannot be used for thumbwheel type input
fields. If it is not possible to use a temporary input field, the data has to be input
directly onto the base screen.

The temporary input field will also be unusable
and not displayed if it has fewer digits than the
actual input field on the base screen (number of
integer number of decimal fraction digits
+ digit for decimal point + digit for sign).
