User Screens
• Normal Screens
Normal screens are basic screens displayed during PT operation.
Any functional objects or fixed objects can be created for normal screens.
Up to 4,000 screens can be created for each project and any number between 0 and 3,999 can be al-
located to the screens.
• Pop-up Screens
Only one normal screen at a time can be displayed during PT operation, but pop-up screens can be
layered on top of normal screens. Pop-up screens are created the same way as normal screens. These
pop-up screens can be used to display user keypads or help screens.
Up to three pop-up screens can be opened at a time.
