If you have already chosen a dialog and want to change it, you must
first select the contour element for which the dialog was required.
Both alternatives are displayed again when you select softkey
"Change selection".
You can select another dialog.
If the selection has become unnecessary as a result of other input
values, you will no longer be requested to select a dialog!
You can delete the value in the selected parameter input field with the
DEL key or softkey "Delete value".
If you have entered the available data for a contour element or
selected the desired contour by means of softkey "Select dialog",
select softkey "Accept element" to store the contour element and
return to the basic display.
You can then program the next contour element.
Use the softkeys to select the contour element of your choice and
enter the values you know in the input screen form for that element.
Confirm your inputs with softkey "Accept element".
Position the cursor on the desired contour element in the contour
chain, and select it with the "Input" key.
The parameters for the selected element will then be displayed. The
name of the element appears at the top of the parameterization
window.
If the contour element can be represented geometrically, it is
highlighted accordingly in the display area, i.e. the color of the contour
element changes from black to red.
Using the cursor keys, you can select a programmed contour element
in the contour chain. The "Input" key displays the parameter input
fields. These can now be altered.
