22 Control Selectors
Publication 2711E-820 – January 1998
When selected, the Cursor Point character is highlighted and
blinking. The Control is set to 1. To turn off the Set Bit Cursor Point
feature and disable the keys, the operator must press the Cancel
button on the PanelView terminal.
The Set Bit Cursor Point values are not changed when the Set Bit
Cursor Point feature is cancelled. The last selected Set Bit Cursor
Point remains on.
Note: By default, when the Cancel button is pressed, the Set Bit
Cursor Point character becomes invisible. To keep the character
visible, even after the Cancel button is pressed, enable the Retain
Cursor On Cancel check box in the Object Setup tab of the Terminal
Setup dialog box. For more information about terminal setup
options, see Chapter 12, “Configuring Terminal Setup Options,” in
the PanelBuilder 1400e Configuration Software for Windows User
Manual.
Note: If you enable the Retain Cursor On Cancel option, the
application will be compatible only with PanelView Version 2 or
later. The application will not be compatible with earlier versions.
Cursor Point Default Operation
1. When the application is run for the first time, the PanelView
terminal scans all Set Bit Cursor Point objects in the screen from
left to right, top to bottom. The first Set Bit Cursor Point object
with its control value set to 1 is as the active Cursor Point for that
screen.
2. If none are found, the Cursor Point object (Set Bit or Numeric
Input) nearest the home position of the screen is the active Cursor
Point object for that screen. If this is a Set Bit Cursor Point, its
control is set to 1.
3. All other Set Bit Cursor Point objects in the selected screen have
their control values reset to 0. Any other Numeric Input Cursor
Point objects on the screen remain inactive.
4. In a Remote I/O application, when the screen is selected and the
Screen Number to PLC option is enabled, both the new screen
number and the new Set Bit Cursor Point values are transferred to
the PLC in the same PLC scan.
Note: When the application is first run, the Cursor Point operation is
enabled.
