Data Display and Entry Screen Definitions
When programming Data Display and Data Entry fields and position-
ing them on the SOI display, each field must be defined according to its
PLC location, data format, and other data parameters specific to the
data format selected.
You are prompted for the register definitions at the Control Window.
Each register definition is somewhat different, depending on the data
format selected and whether the data field is a Data Display or Data
Entry field.
The following lists the applicable data formats and the Control Window
prompts associated with each for Data Display and Data Entry screens.
