2.3 OPERATION SCREEN DISPLAY
The operation screens used in the CNC are classified into the following
levels and managed hierarchically:
- Function
- Chapter
To display a desired operation screen, select a function then chapter.
A function can be selected by using one of the two methods explained
below. A desired function can be selected using either method.
- Using a function key on the MDI panel to select a function
When a function is selected using this method, the soft key
display automatically changes to the chapter selection menu.
- Selecting a function displayed on a soft key
When a function is selected using this method, the soft key
display does not automatically change to the chapter
selection menu. To change the soft key display to the
chapter selection menu, select the chapter key.
To select a chapter, use one of the following methods:
- Pressing a function key on the MDI panel several times
repeatedly
Repeatedly pressing a function key displays the chapters of
the corresponding function sequentially. After the last
chapter is selected, the first chapter is selected again. This
method is useful when you want to display all the chapters of
a function.
- Selecting from the chapters displayed on the soft keys
Select from the chapter selection menu displayed on the soft
keys. This method is useful when you determine the chapter
of a target operation screen.
