Reference region
When multiple regions are selected, only one region appears in the displays for
menu and numeric keypad operations. This is called the “reference region.”
The reference region is determined according to the following precedence.
M/E1 >M/E2 >M/E3 >P/P >User1 > User2 > User3 >User4 >User5
>User6 >User7 >User8 >DME ch1>DME ch2 >DME ch3 >DME ch4
>DME ch5 >DME ch6 >DME ch7 >DME ch8 >Device1 >Device2
>Device3 >Device4 >Device5 >Device6 >Device7 >Device8 >Device9
>Device10 >Device11 >Device12 >P-Bus >GPI >Router >Macro
Master region
The regions saved in a master snapshot register or master timeline register and
the register numbers saved in such regions can be recalled at a time as the
master region.
The master region can be saved or recalled using the numeric keypad control
block.
Registers
A register is an area of memory in a device which holds a snapshot, keyframe,
macro, and so on.

are also shared registers for each processor as shown in the following table.
These are used for user-programmable DME.
