The PT status notify area (PT to PC) is provided to notify the NT20S status
changes to the PC. When any NT20S status has changed, such change is written
to this area in the PC, and the PC will read the data from this area to check the
NT20S status.
The PT status notify area is configured as three consecutive words as shown be-
low.
The first word (word m) of the PT status notify area must be set with the support
tool.
S Currently displayed screen (refer to page 160)
S Content upgrade memory table (refer to page 188)
S PT status (refer to page 196)
The screen number displayed on the NT20S is written to this word.
Simultaneously, the PT status screen switch strobe flag is set to ON (1). After
this is notified to the PC, this flag reverts to OFF (0). Checking the status of this
flag will provide a simple method of checking if the NT20S display has switched.
The number of the numeral memory table is written to the word when the numer-
al memory table contents change due to the touch switch operation on the
NT20S.
As the number of the numeral table is written, the PT status numeral setting
strobe flag is simultaneously set ON (1). After this is notified to the PC, this flag
reverts to OFF (0). Checking the status of this flag will provide a simple method
of checking if a number has been input from the NT20S.
Note that this function is not available with the character-string memory table.
The NT20S operation status and other information are written with the ON or
OFF of the bits as shown below.
