Onboard options - output text settings
Output text
Shortcut: 1120 to 1121
Default: None
Entering text for an output allows you to control it directly or by schedule.
Use the following guidelines to name onboard outputs:
• Use the item numbers listed in
Table 25 on page 128 for characters and
words.
• If you want to configure an output for user output control you must use
the output text feature to name the output. If no output text is programmed,
output control will not function for that output.
• If a desired word does not appear in
Table 25 on page 128, create it using
the characters (custom text).
• When using words from the table, spaces between them appear
automatically. When using characters from the table to create words, you
must reserve an item number for a space after the word.
• Each character or word uses up one item number. For example, a word
from the list counts as one item number.
• Only 16 item numbers are allowed for each output name, so plan before
programming output text. You may need to abbreviate words to avoid
running out of item numbers.
To program output text:
1. With the display showing ONBOARD OPTIONS, press # then press B
twice and the display shows OUTPUT TEXT.
2. Press # and the display shows OUTPUT 1.
3. Press #and the display shows: OUTPUT 1 ITEM 0 0 -. Where ITEM 0
is the first character or word location and 0 is the character or word
number.
4. Enter the number of the character or word, or scroll through the numbers
by pressing B (forward) or A (backward). If you make a mistake, enter the
correct number or continue scrolling through choices.
5. Press # to accept the displayed choice and the display shows OUTPUT 1
ITEM 1 0 -.
6. Repeat the process as needed to complete the output name.
7. Press * after entering the last character or word number. The display
shows the complete text name. For example, OUTPUT 1 GARAGE DOOR.
