Question

Can the LCD Display change bits and v-memories like an operator panel?

Answer

Yes. The LCD Display will allow you to change bits or v-memory words in the PLC. However, we strongly recommend that you do NOT use this unit as a replacement for an operator panel. All memory locations are available from the LCD panel and changing values in the PLC can lead to errors or unsafe functioning if the wrong values are changed. The LCD panel should be reserved for maintanence and troubleshooting purposes by authorized personnel.
