A function key with global function assignment always triggers the same action on the
HMI device or in the PLC, regardless of the currently displayed screen. An example of
such an action is the activation of a screen, or the closing of an alarm window.
A function key with local function assignment is screen-specific and is therefore only
effective within the active screen.
The function assigned to a function key can vary from screen to screen.
Function
Acknowledges the currently displayed error alarm or all the alarms
of an alarm group as group acknowledgment.
Calls up the configured infotext for an operating element.
