16.4.4 VIEW COMMANDS Sub-Menu
This sub-menu contains menu items for each of the Command
Strings that can be used by a SensoCode program. Command
Strings are text constants that can be read by a SensoCode
program. They are not able to be changed with the SETUP menu.
The use of each Command String depends on the SensoCode
program loaded in the Mathematics Virtual Channel.
The items on this menu are COMMAND 0, COMMAND 1, COMMAND 2,
COMMAND 3, COMMAND 4, COMMAND 5, COMMAND 6, and COMMAND 7.
16.4.5 DISPLAY SETUP Sub-Menu
This menu controls how data values are displayed by the channel
and transmitted via serial communications.
DISPLAY. DIGITS Menu Item
Selects the number of digits displayed by the channel. The
choices are:
• “5 DIGIT-BIPOLAR” displays both positive and negative num-
berswithvefulldigits(±99999).
• “6 DIGIT-UNIPLOAR” displays positive numbers with six full
digits (999999) and negative numbers with five full digits
(-99999).
• “7 DIGIT UNIPOLAR” displays positive number with seven
full digits (9999999) and negative numbers with six digits
(-999999).
DISPLAY. DECPT Menu Item
Selects the decimal point location on the channel’s display and
serial communications output. Use the [UP] and [DOWN] buttons
to move the decimal point to the right and left.
DISPLAY. COUNT-BY Menu Item
Determines by what value the display increments or decrements.
This will make the display less sensitive to a noisy signal. The
choices are:
• “00001”
• “00002”
• “00005”
• “00010”
• “00020”
• “00050”
• “00100”
• “00200”
DISPLAY. UNITS Menu Item
Specifies the four character label that is displayed to the right of
the channel’s values. This menu item doesn’t change the mathe-
matical scaling of the channel’s values; that is determined by the
“CALIBRATION DATA -> FULL SCALE VALUE” menu item.
When a character position is flashing press the [UP] or [DOWN]
button to change the character. Press [ENTER] to advance to the
next character.
DISPLAY. AVERAGE Menu Item
Controls the speed with which the channel’s display values will
update. The choices are:
• “ON” means that the display will update four times each sec-
ond. The channel’s values will be averaged for 1/4 second,
then displayed.
• “OFF” means that the channel’s display will update as quickly
as possible.
16.4.6 POWER-ON SOURCE Menu Item
This menu selects which value is displayed by the channel when
first entering the RUN mode.
For single-line displays, the choices are:
• “TRACK” means the live tracking value of the channel.
• “PEAK” means the highest value of the channel.
• “VALLEY” means the lowest value of the channel.
For multi-line displays, the choices are:
• “TRACK” means the live tracking value of the channel.
• “PEAK” means the highest value of the channel.
• “VALLEY” means the lowest value of the channel.
• “TRACK / PEAK” means the live tracking value and the highest
value of the channel.
• “TRACK / VALLEY” means the live tracking value and the low-
est value of the channel.
• “PEAK / VALLEY” means the highest and lowest values of the
channel.
