The Pendant LEDs
The LEDs on the soft buttons, the F buttons, and the REC/DONE button can be lit (either
continuously or intermittently). The following code places the text CLEAR and EXIT over the
first two soft buttons, lights the LED over the first soft button, and blinks the light over the
second soft button:
WRITE(mcp_lun) $CHR(18), $CHR(41), "CLEAR", /S
WRITE(mcp_lun) $CHR(9), "EXIT", /S
WRITE(mcp_lun) $CHR(31), $CHR(5), /S
WRITE(mcp_lun) $CHR(30), $CHR(4), /S
$CHR(9) tabs the cursor to the next soft button position. $CHR(31) lights an LED. $CHR(30)
starts an LED blinking. The button LED to be lit is specified in the ensuing control code. In the
above example, button 5's LED is turned on and button 4's LED is set blinking. The soft
buttons, F buttons, and REC/DONE button are the only buttons that have programmable
LEDs.
Making Pendant Buttons Non-repeat Buttons

Button presses are recorded as long as the button is held down. The repeat function can be
disabled, requiring users to press the button once for each button press they want recorded.
The following instruction disables the repeat option for the period (.) button:
WRITE(mcp_lun) $CHR(25), $CHR(55), /S
The repeat option is enabled with the instruction:
WRITE(mcp_lun) $CHR(24), $CHR(55), /S
