In indirect reference, the numeral memory table entry whose contents are to be
displayed is not specified directly. The contents of the specified numeral
memory table entry (a numeric value) are regarded as the number of a numeral
memory table entry, and the contents of this numeral memory table entry are dis-
played. Note that more processing time is required for indirect reference that for
direct reference.

Number of Digits Displayed
All contents of numeral memory table entries are stored as integers. To display a
numeric value that has a decimal fraction, set the decimal setting to 1 or higher to
specify the number of places after the decimal point, then a decimal point is auto-
matically inserted.
Note that if the number of digits of the numeric value is greater than the total of
the settings for Integer and Decimal, an error occurs and ∗ is displayed for all the
digits.
An example is given below (here, the check mark is assumed to be set for Zero
Suppression).
Example: Displaying 123456
• Setting for Integer = 8; setting for Decimal = 0:
Resulting display: 00123456
