Drawing a Circuit Diagram with Pico 4-35
Circuit Diagram Elements Text Display
LCD Display
Up to 12 characters per line and up to 4 lines can be displayed.
Variables
Actual values and setpoints of timing relays and counters, as well as the current
time, can be displayed in lines 2 or 3, characters 5 to 8 (characters 5 to 9 for time
display). If you have entered text at these locations, they will be overwritten by the
variable values. Enter a blank space as the placeholder, in order to continue text
after the variable display.
Function
The text display relays (D) function in the circuit diagram as normal output
instructions. All eight text display relays can be used retentively.
If text is assigned to a text display, it will be displayed on the LCD if the coil is set
to 1. For this to happen, Pico must be in Run mode and the status display must be
showing before the text is activated.
The following conditions apply to D2 and D8:
When activating several text displays, they are displayed automatically every 4 s in
succession. This process is repeated until:
• None of the display relays are set to 1
• Stop mode is selected
• The Pico power is turned off
• The Ok or Del + Alt buttons are used to switch to a menu
• The text for D1 is displayed
