The ShopTurn operator interface consists of various screen forms in
which there are eight horizontal and eight vertical softkeys
respectively. You operate the softkeys with the keys next to the
softkey bars.
Each softkey displays a new screen form.
ShopTurn has 3 modes (Manual Machine, MDA, and Machine Auto)
and 4 operating sections (Program Manager, Program Messages/
Alarms, and Tools/Zero-point offsets).
To switch from one operating mode/operating area to another, press
the "Menu Select" key. The main menu is displayed, in which you can
select the appropriate operating area via a softkey.
Alternatively, you can call the operating areas via the hardkeys on the
operator panel.
You can activate an operating mode directly at any time via the keys
Auto on the machine control panel.
If you select the "Machine" softkey in the main menu, the screen form
for the currently active mode appears.
