Header
When the TNC is on, the selected operating modes are shown

in the screen header: the machining mode at the left and the

programming mode at right. The currently active operating

mode is displayed in the larger box, where the dialog prompts

and TNC messages also appear (unless the TNC is showing

only graphics).

Soft keys
In the footer the TNC indicates additional functions in a soft-

key row. You can select these functions by pressing the keys

immediately below them. The thin bars immediately above the

soft-key row indicate the number of soft-key rows that can be

called with the keys to the right and left that are used to switch

the soft keys. The bar representing the active soft-key row is

highlighted

Setting the screen layout

You select the screen layout yourself: In the

Programming

mode of operation, for example, you can have the TNC show

program blocks in the left window while the right window displays

programming graphics. You could also display the program

structure in the right window instead, or display only program

blocks in one large window. The available screen windows depend

on the selected operating mode.
To change the screen layout:

Press the screen layout key: The soft-key row

shows the available layout options, see "Modes of

Operation"
Select the desired screen layout
