5. Operation and Configuration
5.1 Introduction to the operation
5.1.1 Control unit
The Programat EP 5010 G2 is equipped with a wide-screen colour display. The furnace can be intuitively operated by means
of the membrane-sealed keypad and the touch screen. The touch buttons can be actuated by slightly tapping the display
with the fingertip and the furnace runs the desired function.
The user interface in the display is divided into three sections:
1. Information bar
(e.g. indication of the current furnace temperature, selected program type, etc.)
2. Main screen
(e.g. editing firing programs, changing the settings, etc.)
3. Navigation bar
(e.g. scrolling, scrolling to higher levels, opening favourite programs, etc.)
