Parts Segment LED Properties dialog box
|
This property dialog box is used to set or change the pin connection information of 7-segment LED and 14-segment LED, which are one of the connection parts in the I/O Panel window.
A LED connected to pins displays the information output from the simulator in the Simulation mode.
The segment LED display styles can be changed on the [[Style] tab].

This section describes the following.
[How to open]
On the I/O Panel window, any one of the following:
- | Double-click a part object "7-segment LED"/"14-segment LED". |
- | Select [Properties...] form the context menu on a part object "7-segment LED"/"14-segment LED". |
- | Select a part object "7-segment LED"/"14-segment LED", and then select [Properties...] form the [View] menu. |

(1) | Pin connection information setting area |
|
Label
|
This area is used to specify the part name. The part name input here is also displayed in the Parts List dialog box as the label.
|
|
Grid type
|
Select the grid signal allocation method from the following.
As a result of the selection, the setting in the Digit signal setting area changes.
|
|
Digit
|
Connects each segment LED to 1 grid pin. Digit signal settings are performed in the Digit signal setting area (default).
16 digits can be specified for the digit signal. A segment LED of up to 16 digits can be created with 1 segment LED part.

|
Customize
|
Cannot be selected.
|
(2) | Segment signal setting area |
|
Segment Signal
|
This area is used to specify the pins (output pins) to be connected to the
segment signals of the 7-segment LED/14-segment LED, as well as their active level.
|
|
Figure
|
This area displays the bitmap of the 7-segment LED/14-segment LED at the top left. When "Pin Name:" is input, the corresponding location is indicated.
|
|
Pin Name
|
The connection pins can be specified either via direct input or through selection from the drop-down list.
The number of segment pins to be connected is 8 in the case of a 7-segment LED, and 15 in the case of a 14-segment LED. Connection to all the segment pins is possible by using the scroll bar on the right side.
|
|
Active Level
|
The active status can be selected with a option button, as follows:
|
|
LOW
|
Sets the active level to LOW.
|
|
HIGH
|
Sets the active level to HIGH (default).
|
Remark | For the pin names that can be specified, see the user's manual of the microcontroller that is used. |
(3) | Digit signal setting area |
|
Digit Signal
|
This area is used to specify 7-segment LED/14-segment LED digits, grid signal connection pins (output pins), and their active level. The connection method changes as follows according to what is specified for [Grid type].
When [Digit] selected
Perform digit signal setting. The maximum number of digit pins that can be connected is 16. Connection to all the digit pins can be done by using the scroll bar on the right side of the area.
When [Customize] selected
Cannot be selected.
|
|
Pin Name
|
The connection pins can be specified either via direct input or through selection from the drop-down list. As the setting signal, specify the connection pins in a series from the lowermost digit.
|
|
Active Level
|
The active status can be selected with a option button, as follows:
|
|
LOW
|
Sets the active level to LOW.
|
|
HIGH
|
Sets the active level to HIGH (default).
|
Remark | For the pin names that can be specified, see the user's manual of the microcontroller that is used. |

|
Full up LED
|
This area is used to set and change related to the filling of each cell of the object are performed. You can change the color by clicking the pull-down button.
|
|
Active Color
|
Specifies the fill color during active display.
|
|
Inactive Color
|
Specifies the fill color during inactive display.

|
Color of Line
|
Specifies and changes the line color.
You can change the color by clicking the pull-down button.
|
|
Dotted/Solid Line
|
Specifies and changes the line shape (dotted/solid).
The desired line shape can be selected from the drop-down list.
The line shape can be specified only when the line thickness is "1" in [Thickness of Line].
|
|
Thickness of Line
|
Specifies and changes the line thickness.
The desired line thickness can be specified either via direct input or through selection from the spin button.A value in the range of 1 to 100 (decimal) can be specified.
