Soft Buttons
The soft buttons have different functions depending on the application program
being run, or the selection made from the predefined function buttons. Whenever
a soft button is active, its function is shown on the bottom line of the pendant
display. Because these buttons do not have fixed labels (the labels are defined by
the program using the buttons), they are referred to as soft buttons. (Prog-
ramming the MCP is covered in the V
Language User’s Guide.) Figure D-3 shows
the soft buttons.
