Input of half-size katakana characters
When the display language of the CNC is Japanese, pressing soft key
-*@;=,7 .H6;! switches between half-size
alphanumeric input mode and half-size katakana input mode. The
current input mode is indicated in the lower left part of the screen.
In half-size katakana input mode, data input from MDI is automatically
converted to katakana characters according to the table for conversion
between half-size katakana and roman characters.
Two-byte character code input
When inputting 2-byte character code, set half-size alphanumeric input
mode.
Enclose character codes (each consisting of four characters) with "@".
For example, to display the following on a custom soft key:
"
"
Input the following:
"F1@7765 812A 8272@"
NOTE
1 When the input mode is switched from half-size
alphanumeric input mode to half-size katakana input
mode or vice versa, the key-in buffer contents are
cleared. To input a character string consisting of
half-size alphanumeric and katakana characters, use
soft key F ;*=4!.
2 When the display is changed to another screen while
half-size katakana input mode is set, the mode
changes to half-size alphanumeric input mode, and
the key-in buffer contents are cleared.
3 Because "@" is used to identify 2-byte character
codes, it cannot be used as a character to be
displayed on custom soft keys.
- Setting the output type
Set the DO signal output type.
0 Disables the output of a DO signal.
Even if a character string is set as the soft key name, it is not
displayed on that custom soft key.
1 Toggle type
Pressing of a custom soft key sets the DO signal to 1, while
another press of the key sets the DO signal to 0.
2 One-shot type
While a custom soft key is being pressed, the DO signal is set to 1.
