● From the horizontal softkey bar, selection bars for the individual cycles can be selected
using the <Grinding cycles> softkey.
● To select a cycle, keep using the vertical softkey bar until the appropriate input screen
plus help display appears on the screen.
● Number values can be directly entered. Entered values are verified for proper range.
● Some parameters that may have only a few values are selected using the toggle key.
● Press <OK> to complete your input (or <Abort> in case of error).

reopen the corresponding input screen from which the program piece has been created, and
you can modify and accept the values.
