Appendix 3 Differences in Components by Release
Number
The component types and attributes that can be created for custom display screens differ
depending on the DX recorder release number.
Hereinafter, release number 3 will be notated as R3. Release number 4 will be notated
as R4 if the firmware version is earlier than 4.11, and "R4(4.11)" if the firmware version is
4.11.
When displaying R3 screen data under R4 or R4(4.11)
• Component attributes that became available for setting in R4 are set to their defaults.
• [2nd span Lower] and [2nd span Upper] settings of trend and scale components can
now be set up to 1 decimal place.

When displaying R4 screen data under R4(4.11)
• Component attributes that became available for setting in R4(4.11) are set to their
defaults.
• Batch name component displays are updated every second.
When displaying R4 or R4(4.11) screen data under R3
• Components not supported in R3 are not displayed.
• The [Depend ID]’s of components dependent on other components that are not
supported in R3 are set to [None].
• Component attributes not supported in R3 are deleted. The [Vertical display] of
components whose attributes are deleted (Labels,
Tag no., Tag comment, Units,
SpanL, and SpanU) is changed to [Horizontal display].
• Component attributes not supported in R3 are ignored. The method of plotting is
changed for components whose attributes are deleted (trend and scale).
• For the trend component’s [2nd span Lower] and [2nd span Upper] attributes, the
number of decimal places is changed to 0, and the number after the decimal point is
rounded.
•
For the scale component’s [2nd span Lower] and [2nd span Upper] attributes, the
number of decimal places is changed to 0, and the number after the decimal point is
rounded.
•
If not displaying the status area in an R4 screen, it is displayed. Components in the
status area are repositioned.
From the point at which you move the cursor to move a component, components in
