Text definition rules
When defining the texts, you must follow the rule below:
<Identifier> "<Text>" // <lines*chars>
<Identifier>: here you use a number to define the identifier for a softkey, message, or screen. The number ranges from
83000 to 84999.
<Text>: here you define the actual text to be displayed, such as softkey name, message text, and parameter description
text.
<lines*chars>: here you specify the available space for the text in the GUI in number of characters and lines. You can
start a new line by inserting the character of "
%n
". A maximum of 2 lines with 9 characters each are available for softkey
texts.
Example
83000 "User%nCycles" // 2*9 ⇒ two lines, each line with nine-character space
83001 "CYCLE100" // 9 ⇒ one line with nine-character space
83020 "DIA short description" // 21 ⇒ one line with 21-character space
