Red Lion LEGEND - Manual (Page 32)

PROGRAM MESSAGE MODULE
Up to 10 messages can be programmed in the Legend Plus. Messages
can be requested by an output status change, User Input(s), or through
serial communications. The messages can be programmed for block or
character scrolling, to blink, time out, and to alternately flash between
message and indication display. On dual color models the message can
be programmed to be displayed in the other color. This would by useful
in drawing the operator’s attention to the message. The following
flowchart shows only the Message portion:
MESSAGE TYPE
1L Block - A 1 line block message utilizes the top line of the display.
The bottom line of the display indicates the information that was
viewed before displaying the message. When there are multiple
blocks in a message, the message text sequences to the next block
every 2 seconds.
2L Block - A 2 line block message uses both lines of the display to
display the message. Messages with more than 1 block
automatically sequence to the next block every 2 seconds.
1L Scrol - The message text scrolls from left to right on the top line of
the display. The bottom line of the display indicates the information
that was viewed before displaying the message. The scroll rate is
approximately 3 characters per second.
2L Scrol - The message text scrolls from left to right on the top line of
the indication display. The bottom line of the display is blanked.
When the message type is changed, the unit automatically replaces
End of Block or End of Line Characters with End of Line or space
characters if appropriate. The message text may require editing when
the message type is changed.
