Chapter 8

Defining Strings for Serial Ports and Viewports

8 – 45

master range passes (the part passes). Otherwise, once PART REJECTED is
displayed, it remains on screen, even though parts are not failing inspections.

The string text for the PART REJECTED message is simply this:

In order to display the message only when the master range fails, we need to
set the

Event

menu so that

Master Range

and

Print on FAIL

are selected:

Event Menu

Print on FAIL selected
Master Range selected

Recall that we also need to create a second string which will have the effect
of erasing the PART REJECTED string when the inspection passes. One
way to do this is to use the

Copy

and

Paste

features to copy the PART

REJECTED string to another string. This way both the string text, and the
exact string position, are copied.

Once the PART REJECTED string is copied to another string, we change the

Event

setting on this new string so that

Master Range

and

Print on PASS

are selected. Next we change the color on the

Color Selection

menu to

Clear

. This way, when the clear string is “displayed” (it will not actually

appear on the screen), it will have the effect of erasing the PART REJECTED
message.
