Red Lion LEGEND - Manual (Page 31)

PROGRAM MESSAGE MODULE
Up to 10 messages can be programmed in the Legend Plus.
Messages can be requested by an output status change, User Input(s),
or through serial communications. The messages can be programmed
for block or character scrolling, to blink, time out, and to alternately
flash between message and indication display. On dual color models
the message can be programmed to be displayed in the other color.
This would by useful in drawing the operator’s attention to the
message. The following flowchart shows only the Message portion:
MESSAGE TYPE
1L Block - A 1 line block message utilizes the top line of the
display. The bottom line of the display indicates the information
that was viewed before displaying the message. When there are
multiple blocks in a message, the message text sequences to the
next block every 2 seconds.
2L Block - A 2 line block message uses both lines of the display to
d i s p l a y t h e me s s a g e . M e s s a g e s w i t h mo r e t h a n 1 b l o c k
automatically sequence to the next block every 2 seconds.
1L Scrol - The message text scrolls from left to right on the top line
of the display. The bottom line of the display indicates the
information that was viewed before displaying the message. The
scroll rate is approximately 3 characters per second.
2L Scrol - The message text scrolls from left to right on the top line of
the indication display. The bottom line of the display is blanked.
When the message type is changed, the unit automatically
replaces End of Block or End of Line Characters with End of Line or
space characters if appropriate. The message text may require
editing when the message type is changed.
