Rolling text
The display element Rolling Text makes it possible to display consecutive texts in a
line. Various messages or even error messages can be displayed that change over in
succession in a firmly specified time.
The required texts are entered in the parameter table and colors as well as display
mode are selected.
This rolling function only works if at least two rows of text are present.

Unconditional
In this operating mode, the texts are displayed in a time-controlled manner
without any further condition, and after the last text entry in the parameter table,
they start again with the first one. The clock speed is defined in the Display dur-
ation parameter.

Tag
When this operating mode is selected, the text selection will depend on the
application program. An operand that can be selected under the Associated vari-
able tab will be used to control how the texts are displayed. You can select local
or network operands of type byte, word, or double word. Each text will then be
automatically linked to a bit from the selected operand as you enter it.
Text 1 will be assigned bit 1
Text 2 will be assigned bit 2
Text 3 will be assigned bit 3
etc.
