The following displays can be performed with lamp or touch switch guide charac-
ters:
• Display several lines of guide characters.
• Switch the display between different guide characters when OFF and ON.
• Display numeral memory table contents as guide characters.
• Display string memory table contents as guide characters.
The word configuration of the PT status control area and PT status notify area
can be set to emulate those of the NT20S, NT30/NT30C, or NT620S/NT620C/
NT625C; this mode is called NT20S or NT30/620 compatible mode.
When the PT is operating in a compatible mode, it will be equivalent to an
NT20S, NT30/NT30C, or NT620S/NT620C/NT625C in the functions listed be-
low. The PT retains full V2, V3 functionality in all functions other than the ones
listed below. Refer to Appendix C NT20S and NT30/620 Compatible Modes for
more details.
• Word configuration and functions of the PT status control area and PT status
notify area
• Image/library codes
• Insertion of image/library data into character strings
Data areas in CS/CJ-series PCs that were previously inaccessible can be ac-
cessed.
All banks in the EM Area, Timer Completion Flags (TU), Counter Comple-
tion Flags (CU), Work Area (WR), Task Flags (TK), and the HR Area.
You can set the data (numeric values) for multiple words in record units using the
tabular elements on the PT screen, and write these settings in a single operation
to words on the host (i.e., PC or PT memory) using a touch switch operation on
the PT Unit. Also, multiple words of numeric data can be read from the host in
one operation. In this way, groups of parameter settings can be edited at the PT
Unit, and written to or read from the host.
You can display the brightness and contrast adjustment screen using either the
touch switch or commands from the host, even while the PT is in operation.
