8-9 Using the Display History Function
This section describes how to use the “display history” which records the order and
frequency of screen display.
The display history can be checked using the System Menu of the NT31/NT31C. It
is also possible to check it during operation by displaying the display history
screen.
Concerning the display history record data stored to the NT31/NT31C, the Sup-
port Tool can read it out to the host as a text file. For the procedure for reading the
display history record data, refer to the NT-series Support Tool Ver. 3.0 for Win-
dows95/98 Operation Manual (V053-E1-j).
