1. Overview and Operation

[Overview]
This demo project demonstrates how to use Macro to transform PLC ASCII
string to Unicode characters according to the Unicode included in
Character Map and display them on HMI.

[Operation]
Input ASCII using Numeric Input objects then press Macro_1 to display
Unicode using ASCII Display object. Macro_1 and Macro_11 display in
different order. Macro_1 displays high byte first, then low byte. Whereas
Macro_11 displays low byte first then high byte as shown in the 2 lines at
the bottom.

2. Setting up the screen

2-1 Setting objects on Window 10

Add Numeric Input objects with RW addresses in 16-bit HEX format.

Set [Read Address] to “RW”.

For Numeric Input object, select [Numeric Format] tab. For [Data
format], select “16-bit Hex”.

 Demo Project for Cyrillic ASCII2Unicode

Create 8 Numeric Input objects with addresses “RW0~RW7”.

Create 2 Function Key objects to execute Macro_1 and Macro_11.

Tick [Execute Macro], and then select the Macro to be executed from the
pull down list.

Create a Set Bit object for sound control.

Set the following functions for PLC Control object:

1. [Type of control]: Sound control
2. [Trigger address]: LB 0
3. Select the sound form [Sound Library]. When the project is started
this sound will be played.
4. [Trigger mode]: OFF->ON

When LB 0 status changes form OFF to ON, the sound chosen will be
played. Add another Set Bit object, set [Write address] to “LB0” and
[Attribute] to “Set ON when window opens”.

Create 1 ASCII Display object and 16 Numeric Display objects.

7 v1.00
 Demo Project for Cyrillic ASCII2Unicode

For ASCII Display object, set [Read address] to “LW0”. Press [Setting…],
set [No. of word] to “16”.

Create 16 Numeric Display objects from addresses “LW0~LW15”. Under

[Numeric Format] tab select “16bit- Hex”.

2-2 On Window 11, create Text object for inputting Cyrillic characters used
in the project. In this way this font can be downloaded and displayed
correctly on HMI

2-3 Character Map on window 12

The ASCII map is shown below; users can check the ASCII number to be
filled in Numeric Input objects on window 10.
For example, refer to the value left side and upper side.

To display , write “0081” to Numeric Input object, and for , “00A8”.

2-4 Macro_1
According to the Character Map that shows how Unicode corresponds to
ASCII code, write the code to Macro.
For example: UNICODE[128]=0x0402 is the transformation of
U+0402(0x80). As shown below, 0x80 is transformed into decimal, 128.

form RW0~RW7 to high byte and low byte of Unicode, then display on
LW0~LW15.

As for macro_11, low byte is displayed first and then high byte.
