73 Numerics
Publication 2711E-6.15 – November 1998
See “Scale and Offset” in Defining Tags of the PanelBuilder 1400e
Configuration Software for Windows User Manual for further
information.
See “Using the Decimal Point” later in this chapter for information
about the decimal point options for the input component.
Note: If you assign the Optional Keypad Write Expression, the
Raise and Lower keys are disabled.
The operator can enter up to 16 digits in the window. By default, 5 of
these are displayed. Pressing Enter validates the value. If the value
entered is valid, the window clears. The new value is then sent to the
PLC.
If the value is invalid, an error message appears. The value remains
in the window and is not sent to the PLC. The operator must clear
the error message from the display.
Note: The numeric entry scratchpad occupies the full screen width
of the top 60 pixels of the screen. When displayed, the scratchpad
covers any objects in this area. Keep this in mind before you place
objects in this area.
Important: For Remote I/O applications, and ControlNet Scheduled
tags, the PanelView terminal can retain the current
values for the object’s controls, even after the terminal
is turned off. Depending on how the Application
Startup operation is defined, the retained value (last
state) or initial value (default) is sent to the PLC when
power is reapplied.
For DH+ applications, ControlNet Unscheduled tags,
and Modbus applications, the current value cannot be
retained. Depending on how the Application Startup
operation is defined, the initial value or nothing
(default) is sent to the PLC when power is applied.
For details on configuring Application Startup
operation, see “Application Startup” in Chapter 5 of the
PanelView 1000e, 1200e, and 1400e Operator
Terminals User Manual.
