A.17 OL3440 Display Panel
The OL3440 Display Panel is a 4 line x 20 character LCD display. You can send text
to any line.
A.17.1 OL3440 Configuration Options
The OL3440 panel is configured through the Configure I/O menu command in the
PointeControl development framework. (For more information on Configure I/O,
see page 118.) Selecting an OL3440 panel and clicking the I/O button opens the
OL3440 I/O Map dialog window…
This tab controls to four lines of the LCD on the OL3440 panel. The lines on the
panel are numbered 1 through 4, from top to bottom. Each line is mapped to a
separate 20-character String variable.
To configure a Line, click the to the right and select a String variable from the
pop-up menu. Each variable can be used only once.
Lines can be set and changed independently of each other; text does not wrap
from one line to the next. To display text on the panel, use String commands
(
Flow Chart or Ladder Block ) to write the desired text to the associated String
variables.
NOTE: You can leave any or all Lines unconfigured, but if you do, those I/O points
will not be available to your project.
When you have finished configuring the panel, click OK to save your changes and
close the window.
