The status of RS-232 connection to the controller is displayed.

the galvano motor, the relationship between the number of pulses
and the angle also differs with the motor type.
Select an axis for control and information display.

The screen can display the information of only one axis selected
here, although the position displayed at ② and the status
displayed at ⑨ always show the information of both axes.
