I'm trying to find the numeral for the character degree. The manual has it as 223 but when I simulate, it's not the correct character. Is there a character to symbol map ???
-
There is no standard character set for ASCII character above 127. Each manufacturer is free to implement what they want for ASCII 128 to 255. Hence ASCII 223 appears differently on the LCD display from that on the PC and hence the simulation cannot show the "degree" symbol. In this case you will have to transfer the program to the PLC to be able to see the symbol.

so....I'm using your hmi with the 4x20 lcd display but no extended ascii table included. how about sending or posting that?

You can find the link of the LCD manual and dimensional drawings from the following link:
