Using the Parallel Port

Numeric Mode and Autorun
Message

Using a two line DL5, the numeric mode can display an autorun message on
line two in addition to the numeric data on line one. The autorun message is
selected as described in Chapter 8. It should be programmed to appear on
line two with autoclear set to NO. Each time the display enters the run
mode or is powered up, the autorun message will appear on line two. The
numeric data being sent will appear on line one.

Example:

This autorun message serves as a “legend” or “label” for the numeric
variables.

When using the numeric mode, data must be held on the parallel port for
110 milliseconds (see page 7-13).
