2.1 Screen Menu
After turning the power on among the captions interpreting the softkeys the screen menu is
active. On a color screen the default background color of the menu bar of the screen menu is
light grey. In order to switch over from another menu to this, the screen menu key
must be pressed. The different screens can be selected in the screen menu by pressing the
softkey with the appropriate caption. Actions (e.g., Data input) cannot be initiated from the
screen menu, this menu is only for to switch over between screens. The screen menu is of two
levels, in the first level the following screen menus can be found:

If the appropriate screen within the screen menu is active, the caption of the menu field is
highlighted, otherwise the caption is dark (black). After turning the power on the ABSOLUTE
POSITION screen is active, this is why the Position (Positn) is highlighted. In order to switch
over to another screen menu simply the softkey of the desired screen menu must be pressed.
The last softkey of the first level of screen menu (beside the action menu key ) is the

activating the menu by pushing the softkey of the active screen menu.

POSITION is displayed by means of Page than after selecting the OPERATOR’S PANEL
screen menu the POSITION screen menu is returned, in this case the MACHINE POSITION
screen appears (the name of the screen can always be seen in the third line).
Should the control contain five softkeys (9" monitor), it can only display five menu fields at a
time. In this case the first level of the screen menu is as follows:
