Function Key Operations

F1

F8

Function keys can be linked to application screens allowing quick access to
critical data display or data entry screens. For example, the F1 function key
is linked to Recipe Screen 10. The operator can press F1 at any point in the
application to download recipe registers on screen 10 to the processor.

A control mode can be assigned to each function key linked to a screen.

Control Mode

Function

Auto Return

Returns to the screen displayed before the function key was pressed.

Continue

Continues to the next screen in the link regardless of the screen displayed
before the function key was pressed.

Bit Write Mode

Allows the function key when pressed to set or clear a bit in the controller.
Bit Write Mode operates with either Auto Return or Continue mode.

The function keys access 8 contiguous word data elements defined by the
user. For example, assign function keys F1 to F8 to N7:20

N7:27.
