Resize a Set Bit button object
Move the mouse pointer over one of the resize handles. When the pointer changes to a double-
headed arrow, simply click and drag to a new location.
Reset Bit
The Reset Bit button resets (clears) a targeted bit/coil. The button displays with either text
labels or a graphic image to represent two states. When a reset bit button is on screen, the HMC
continuously polls the target bit register to determine which state to display (feedback tag must
be enabled to display two states).
