displayXY (Function)

This sets the current write position. This is the position where the next write to the display will take place.

Input:

x : INT (1..18 for DX4, 1..23 for NX-400)

x position (column) 1 is the leftmost.

y : INT (1..2 for DX4, 1..6 for NX-400)

y position (row) 1 is the topmost.

Returns:

None.

Declaration:

FUNCTION displayXY;
VAR_INPUT
  x : INT;
  y : INT;
