12.6.1 Procedure - Changing the Window on All Screens

The Global Window changes depending on the value stored in a word address (for example, D117).

  1. From [System Settings], point to [Display Unit] and open the [Mode] tab.

  2. From [Global Window Operation], select [Indirect].

  3. Set the [Data Type].

  4. Select the [System Area] tab.

  5. In [System Area Device], select the appropriate device/PLC that uses the system area. In [System Area Start Address], define the top address (D100).

  6. Select the following check boxes: [Enable System Data Area], [Window Control], [Window Screen], and [Window Display Position].

    The Global Window (Indirect designation) settings are complete.

When bit 0 of the Window Control Address (example, D116) specified in [System Area Device] turns ON, the Window displays. When the Window address (example, D117) value changes, the screen changes. When the value of the display coordinate address (for example, X-coordinate is D118, Y-coordinate is D119) changes, the Window position changes.
