The Zoom attribute comprises a special feature. It can be used to enlarge
a character to a size of max. four characters (i.e., a square of 2x2 size).
At this point, the enlarged character can be represented by placeholder
characters only. However, the character appears in its full size on the dis-
play of the operator terminal.
The Variables menu command of the Edit menu is used to insert vari-
ables. With this menu command selected, the Variables description

Fig. 9-12 Available Variables Format Menu
Pressing [F2] (or selecting the Select name command in the Edit menu)
displays the list of available variables for selection. A new variable is gen-
erated by entering a new variable name. In the event that, in the case of a
new and/or selected variable, the display format is missing, pressing [F4]
(or selecting the Select format command in the Edit menu) displays the
list of available formats. Selecting a format from this list causes it to be
adopted for the current variable.
The user also has the option to define a new format by typing a new name
in the Format name text box. The new format will adopt the settings dis-
played in this window. The extensive options for formatting variables are
described in more detail in the User Manual furnished by SÜTRON elec-
tronic GmbH.
