Softkey. Description.
Show or hide the service window. This softkey toggles between the shared usage of the
area of the PLC environment (that displays both the service window and the data window)
and the full work screen (hiding the service window so the data window is expanded
covering the whole area of the PLC environment).
Find text. This softkey is used for searching a text in all the files of the project. The result
will be shown at the "Outputs" service.
Go to file. If the cursor is positioned on the result of a text search, a compiling error or
a PLC resource, after selecting this option, it opens the corresponding file and the cursor
goes to the line it refers to.
This softkey only appears with the "Outputs" or "Cross references" service.
Mnemonic language or contact language. This softkey toggles the display between the
mnemonic language and the contact language (ladder diagram).
This softkey only appears in the "Programs" service when monitoring a program.
