Message text 31 – Red Lion LEGEND User Manual
Page 33
MESSAGE TEXT
A message can contain up to 200 characters. The keypad can be used to perform
message editing functions such as; scrolling through message text, inserting and
deleting characters, toggling from upper/lower case, toggling from
Extended/Standard ASCII characters sets, etc. Refer to table below for text editing
key functions. Message Text and other message parameters may also be
programmed utilizing the optional Legend Plus Programming Software.
Before entering message text, the message type (1L/2L Block or Scroll) should
be configured. This selection will affect the formatting of the message text. When
entering block messages, an end of line character and an end of block character can
be used to conserve message memory. The End of Line character is displayed as a
small open square. It is used only on the top line in 2 line block messages. If there is
more than one space at the end of the top line, the End of Line character should be
inserted after the last non space character. The End of Block character is displayed
as a large open block. It can be inserted after the last character of a message block
on either display line. Message blocks that contain only End of Line and/or End of
Block characters will be blank when displayed. The End of Line or End of Block
are not used in character scrolling messages (1L or 2L Scrol).
The Last character in a message is the End of Message character, which is
displayed as a large solid block. The End of Message character cannot be edited.
