When the character code is set to "H0", characters after that are not displayed on the
screen.
To insert space in a text, store "H20" to the specified word device.
When connecting with the A Series PLC through a computer link or with the S7-200/300/
400 Series from Siemens AG, ASCII codes are displayed from the left of the screen in order
of upper eight bits to lower eight bits.
Only when connecting with the A Series PLC through computer link, ASCII codes can be
displayed from the left of the screen in order of lower eight bits to upper eight bits by
changing the station number in "Project"
"Auxiliary Settings"
"Setup"
"Station #". Add
16 to the actual station number to effect the change. (For example: station # 3 becomes
#19.)
