1.3.2 Operation by means of softkeys and hardkeys
The ShopMill user interface consists of different screens featuring
eight horizontal and eight vertical softkeys. You operate the softkeys
with the keys next to the softkey bars.
Each softkey displays a new screen form.
ShopMill has 3 operating modes (Machine Manual, MDI, and Machine
Auto) and 4 operating areas (Program Manager, Program Messages/
Alarms, and Tools/Work Offsets).
To switch from one operating mode/operating area to another, press
the "Menu Select" key. The main menu is displayed, in which you can
select the appropriate operating area via a softkey.
Alternatively, you can call the operating areas via the hardkeys on the
operator panel.
