16 Bit Binary Data Entry (DTAM Plus DH485 Only)
A new data type for data entry screens has been added. The new selection 16
BIT BINARY displays a 16 bit binary value with a space between every four
bits (nibble). A default value may be provided for the data entry field. For
example: 0001 0010 0011 0100. If a default is not provided, the data entry
screen displays asterisks in the field positions:
Use the [Y], [N] and [+/–] keys to move data entry field positions:
•
[Y] moves the cursor one position to the right. If the cursor is already at
the least significant (rightmost) bit, the cursor moves to the most
significant (leftmost) bit position.
•
[N] moves the cursor one position to the left. If the cursor is already at
the most significant (leftmost) bit, the cursor moves to the least
significant (rightmost) bit position.
•
[+/–] functions same as the [Y] key.
Change a bit value by moving the cursor to the bit position and press either
[0] or [1].
After selecting the 16 BIT BINARY data entry type, you must enter the
register number and select whether or not a default value is read into the
field. If you don’t enable the default, the initial data entry displays asterisks
in the field positions.
