Context Sensitive Help

The MILLPWR

G2

uses an intuitive method to aid the user when

assistance is required. When assistance is needed with a feature, the
User Manual can be displayed directly at the point which describes the
feature.

To use this help, in this example, the console is in PGM mode, and a
Linear Engraving cycle is being programed. It is desired to see
descriptions of the cycle parameters, and the cycle itself. The
following steps describe the actions needed to take.

Using Context Sensitive Help

Press the INFO key to open the on screen User

Manual.

This will display a new window containing the section in the User
Manual, opened directly to the description of the desired feature.
This is the active window when Context Sensitive Help is activated.

To activate the Contents View on the left side of the display, press
the Contents View soft key. This allows the user to see all available
topics from the User Manual. The Forward and Back soft keys will
navigate the users previous history. The Previous Topic and
Next Topic

soft keys will select the previous and next topic in the

manual contents (shown in the Contents View on the left hand side).
These soft keys allow the user to select other sections of the User
Manual while in Context Sensitive Help. Using these keys will
navigate the User Manual even if the Contents View is hidden.

The following describes the action, and use of the soft keys:

The Back soft key navigates one page back per key

press to a previous page that was viewed from the
history. History is not cleared when the Help Screen
is exited.

The Forward soft key navigates one page forward per

key press from the viewed pages in history.

The Previous Topic soft key navigates one Topic up

in the contents window per key press.

The Next Topic soft key navigates one Topic Down in

the contents window per key press.

The Contents View soft key is a toggle key to show/
