Using the control panel 101
Pointing the bit pointer parameter to a bit value in another signal
The bit pointer parameter points to the value of a bit in another signal, or can be fixed
to 0 (FALSE) or 1 (TRUE). For the latter option, see page 103. The bit pointer
parameter points to a bit value (0 or 1) of one bit in a 32-bit signal. The first bit from
the left is bit number 31, and the first bit from the right is bit number 0. For example,
bit 01 stands for bit number 21 = 2, the second bit from the right, and number 00
stands for bit number 20 = 1, the first bit from the right.
When adjusting a bit pointer parameter on the control panel, POINTER is selected to
define a source from another signal. A pointer value is given in format P.x x. yy.z z ,
where xx = Parameter group; yy = Parameter index, zz = Bit number.
