Software License. A software license conveys to the purchaser the right to use a defined software prod-
uct. Software licenses are enforced with a Software Licensing Manager program.
Stippling. The technique of displaying items in a lighter shade (typically gray) to denote some special
characteristic. This method is employed in the Micro-PWC system to display items which reside on a par-
ticular menu, but which are not currently available to the user (typically, because of access level consider-
ations).
System Window. A small window located at the top left corner of the Micro-PWC system monitor display.
It appears automatically upon system start-up, and is visible at all times (unless deliberately covered by the
user). The System Window provides a date/time indicator and a menu button for access to other system
features and utilities.
Title Bar. An area located at the top of a window, which provides information to identify the window.
Touchscreen. A monitor with a screen that is sensitive to touch, allowing selections to be made without
the use of a keyboard, mouse or trackball.
Trackball. A ball, movable about its center, that is used to position the pointer on the monitor screen.
(Synonymous with control ball.)
Window. A rectangular section of the screen, which has a background color and a border. Windows may
also incorporate scroll bars, title bars, and other higher-level user interface components. See also System
Window, Mini-Alarm Window, Operator Window, Parent Window, and Child Window.

1.7 Notation Conventions
Window titles, menu items, and labels on tabs are shown in italic type.
The labels on keys and pushbuttons are shown in bold type.
Text that the user types in, computer responses, and example text are shown in constant width type.
The term pushbutton refers to video buttons with a three-dimensional appearance; selecting such buttons
via the cursor positioning device (mouse or trackball) or keyboard causes them to appear "pushed in".
Many of the windows which appear on the Micro-PWC system contain buttons labelled Ok, Cancel and
Close. The Ok button is used to save data and close the window in which it appears. The Cancel button is
used when data is not to be saved, and the current window closed. The Close button is used when there is
no data to be saved, and the current window is to be closed (except in the case of dialog pop-up windows,
which are closed using an Ok button).
