Always confirm your input with the "Input" key. The value is accepted.
With this key, you can switch to the next value in the selection list
without displaying the entire list (e.g. to select from only a small
number of values/settings).
· The editor displays only the characters which can be input via the
operator panel front keyboard.
· A part program opened by the editor cannot be simultaneously
started in the NC (enable is canceled); an alarm (14014) is
indicated in this case. If the control is switched off while the editor
is open, the enable might have to be set manually.
Confirm input:
Your inputs are accepted when you press softkey "OK". The selected
function is executed. The window is closed, and you return to the call
menu level.
Cancel input:
Your inputs are rejected if you select the "Abort" softkey. The selected
function is aborted. The window is closed and you return to the menu
level from which the window was called.
The response is the same on return from a function (vertical softkey
bar).
The "Insert" key can also have an "Undo" function if you abandon the
input/modification you have just entered. The cursor remains
positioned in the currently selected field.
Switch from the horizontal menu level back to the call menu level.
