Resize a Reset 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.

Toggle Bit

The Toggle Bit button alternates setting and clearing a targeted coil each time the button is
pressed. When pressed by the operator, the HMC reads the current value of the coil, and then
sends a command to set or reset the coil depending upon the value read. The button shows text
labels or a graphic image that is used to represent two states. When a toggle 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).
