5.1.2. Operation Options

The following operation options can be selected for a bit button to make it more informative, secure, and useful. You need
to select and set those options in the Bit Button property sheet.

Option

Description

Monitor

The bit button can be configured to monitor a bit. When this option is selected, the state of the
button is controlled by the monitored bit. With the monitored bit, you can control the color and label
of the bit button.

ON Macro, OFF
Macro

An ON Macro is a macro that is run when the associated button is activated to set a bit to 1 (On).
An OFF Macro, on the contrary, is a macro that is run when the associated button is activated to set
a bit to 0 (Off). The following table shows the macros that each bit button operations can support.

Select these options in the General Page. Specify and edit the ON macro in the ON Macro page.
Specify and edit the OFF macro in the OFF Macro page.

Note: When an ON macro or OFF macro is specified, the associated bit setting operation is not
performed until the macro is completely executed. So it is important to keep ON and OFF macros
as short as possible in order not to delay the bit setting operation.

Touch Operation

operator does not respond within the specified time period (Maximum Waiting Time), the button will
stop performing its operation.

Select and set this option in the Advanced page.
