Section 7-2
Reference - What is designated here is the memory table number only. The type of memory
table (numeral/character string) is set by the “memory table copy type” bit in the
PT status control bits.
- Copying is not executed just be writing the memory table numbers. It is execut-
ed when the “memory table copy execution” bit in the PT status control bits is
turned ON.
- Since the memory table numbers start from 0, if there are 2000 memory tables,
the range is 0 to 1999, and if there are 1000, the range is 0 to 999.

Reference - Since the statuses of the PT status control bits do not change even if the status
of the NT31/NT31C changes in accordance with the settings of attributes or
memory switches, the statuses of the PT status control bits may sometimes dis-
agree with the status of the NT31/NT31C. For example, the buzzer may be
sounding even though the “continuous buzzer” bit is OFF. In such a case, per-
form PT status control bit operations to achieve agreement with the status of the
NT31/NT31C.
- The PT status control bits are checked in bit units by the NT31/NT31C. The only
functions that are actually performed are those for which the corresponding bits
have changed in status.
