3.3 Branching in Standard Screens
With the ENTER-key, you change from message level to screen level. At this
point you can control and monitor the process by means of suitable screens
and standard screens and perform system settings.
With reference to the standard screens, a description is provided below of the
procedure for branching between individual screens within the screen hierar-
chy.
Call in your configured screen hierarchy thetandard basic screen. Its full
name is displayed on the first line only with 4-line and 8-line displays. With
2-line displays, the screen name is not displayed. Depending on the OP ver-
sion and display size concerned, the next lines include a different number of
text elements of the current entry. These text elements show the name of oth-
er standard screens to which you can branch by using the assigned soft keys.
Using the soft keys beneath the symbols << and >>, you can move the dis-
played screen segment of the current screen. You branch to the next screen by
pressing the soft key beneath the appropriate text indicating the name of the
screen to be called.
Figure 3-3 shows the branch principle with reference to the 8-line display of
the OP15/C. Figure 3-4 shows the branch principle of the 4-line display of
the OP5.
