Numeric Entry
Numeric Entry shows the current value of an 8/16/32-bit register and allows the operator the
ability to write a new value. The value displays using a number of formats (i.e. signed, unsigned,
and floating point). The numeric entry object supports linear scaling (engineering units) with
the ability to scale the read value based upon two mathematical operations. When a numeric
entry is on a screen of the HMC7000, the HMC continuously polls the target register to show the
current value.
