If you wish to use the existing LCD file and modify the location description
and units, select Yes. If you wish to reload the DLD and start with no selected
input locations, then select No.
FIGURE 5. Information Window
If you selected a DLD file that has an existing LCD file and wanted to modify
the LCD file, then the information window in FIGURE 5 will be displayed.
This screen is reminding you that any changes made to the DLD file since the
LCD file was created will not be contained in the old LCD file. For example,
if you created a LCD file and then added an extra location to the program file,
then this location will not be in the input location list in the old LCD file.
Once a file has been selected the main editing screen will appear.
FIGURE 6. Main Screen
The information contained in this window is the LCD screen number, the Input
location, the description text and the units text. The length of the description
text is limited to 16 characters. This is the length of one line. The program
will not allow you to enter any more characters than this. The units text is
limited to 8 characters in length. The number read from the datalogger is a
five-digit number plus a decimal place and a position for a negative sign.
To add another screen to the LCD, click on the Next button and the window
will change to that shown in FIGURE 7.
