4 ASCII Displays
Publication 2711E-820 – January 1998
If the current display position were 0;0, the string would display:
←
[3;0HThis
sequence
is invalid
The left arrow character in the display represents ESC.
Other invalid sequences:
•
nested Reverse Video On, for example,
“ESC[7mOneESC[7mTwo”
The second command is invalid and, if possible, is displayed as
part of the string.
Note: If the Reverse Video On is without an Off, the terminal
automatically turns off the reverse video at the end of the string.
•
nested Reverse Video Off, for example,
“ESC[27mOneESC[27mTwo”
The second command is invalid and, if possible, is displayed as
part of the string.
•
wrong characters in text position sequence. The text position
coordinates must not contain any characters other than 0 to 9, for
example, “ESC[a3;4HThe string.”
Configuring the ASCII Display Object
Configure the ASCII Display object according to this table:
Field Meaning
Name Assign a name, up to 15 characters, to document the object for
printed reports. This increases the application’s size by 1 byte
per character.
Control ASCII Text indicates the PLC location of the string this object
displays. The display is updated whenever this string changes.
Assign a String type tag up to 82 characters long.
You can adjust the size of the ASCII Display and format its
foreground color, background color, font style, border style, and
blink and underline attributes. For details on formatting objects see
“Changing Object Appearance,” in Chapter 9, Creating Objects, in
the PanelBuilder 1400e Configuration Software for Windows User
Manual.
Note: If you use the Extra Large Font, the application will be
compatible only with PanelView Version 2 or later. The application
will not be compatible with earlier versions.
