2.5 General operating sequences
Keys
A range of keys are available in the various operating areas and
menus. The function of the keys is the same in all operating areas.
This identical functionality applies only if the operating areas are left
intact as supplied by Siemens AG and no modifications have been
configured by the user.
Additional information
It is possible to customize the menu trees. In this way, users are able
to define softkeys according to their individual needs. Due to this
capability, the menus and softkeys on your control may be different to
those described in this Operator's Guide.
