6.1.3.13 Cursor control (#8505, #8506, and #8507)
By setting a value in the cursor control variable #8505, the cursor can
be displayed.
#8505=0: Erases the cursor.
=1: Displays the cursor.
When the power is turned on, the value of #8505 is 0.
The cursor can be displayed at a desired position by setting a value in
the cursor X position control variable #8506 and the cursor Y position
control variable #8507. Specify a cursor position in the character
coordinate system.
NOTE
1 The cursor drawn is displayed as an underscore (_).
This function is different from cursor control
(rectangular cursor) based on G230, and can be
used together with the rectangular cursor.
2 Even when the screen clear function (G202) is
specified, the control variables #8505, #8506, and
#8507 are not affected. So, the cursor displayed is
not moved or erased.
3 Even if an attempt is made for character coordinate
system compensation on a 7.2" or 8.4" LCD unit,
compensation is not performed.
4 The cursor is colored according to the color at the
position where the cursor is placed.
6.1.3.14 Absolute mode (G390)/incremental mode (G391) specification
When bit 3 (INCD) of compile parameter (No. 9167) is set to 1,
whether a coordinate command in the character coordinate system and
graphic coordinate system is an absolute mode command (G390) or
incremental mode command (G391) is to be specified.
NOTE
1 When bit 3 (INCD) of compile parameter (No.
9167) is set to 0, an absolute mode command is
specified at all times.
2 These codes are effective to G204, G230, G242,
G243, G300, G249, G01, G02, G03, G206, and
G317.
