The Display Format is selected using the pull-down menu. Table 2-1 shows the format
types and how the data appears for each. For example, most analog variables such as
Process and Setpoint are displayed as a Float, with one to six places to the right of the
decimal point.

High Limits and Low Limits are used to for continuous variables that have limits for
operator entry, such as setpoint and output. If there is no operator entry, limits need not
be entered. When the format is a bar or deviation the high and low limits are used to
define the upper and lower range values for the bar.
If an operator will enter or change the value from the front panel using the up/down
arrows, an Entry Method must be selected. When set to Entry Required, the operator
must press the flashing ENT key before the changed value is entered. When set to
Immediate, the new value is entered as soon as the Display Block is executed (on the
next scan).
