8.3 How to configure the "Custom" operating area
Configuring the softkey for the "Custom" operating area
You need the easyscreen.ini and custom.ini files to configure the operating area. Templates
for both these files are available in the
[System Siemens directory]
/templates/cfg directory.
1. First copy the files to the
[System oem directory]
/cfg directory and make your changes from
there.
2. File easyscreen.ini already contains a definition line for the "Custom" operating area:
;StartFile02 = area := Custom, dialog := SlEsCustomDialog,
startfile := custom.com
The ";" at the start of the line represents the comment character. This means the line is
commented out and, as such, not active. To change this, the ";" must be deleted.
The "startfile" attribute in this line defines that the entry will refer to the custom.com project
file when the "Custom" operating area is selected.
3. You create the custom.com project file in the
[System oem directory]
/proj directory. This
contains the relevant configuration which is created in the same way as the aeditor.com
file of the "Program" operating area. The configured start softkeys are then displayed in the
"Custom" operating area.
4. You configure the language-neutral text for the title bar of the dialog in the custom.ini file.
The following entry is available in the template for this purpose:
[Header]
Text=Custom
You can replace this text with a customized one.
5. The template contains the following entry for configuring a start screen for the "Custom"
operating area:
[Picture]
Picture=logo.png
Logo.png is the name of the start screen which appears on the "Custom" operating area's
start dialog. Here you can display a company logo, for example, or another image. The file
should be saved in the directory for the corresponding resolution under:
[System oem
directory]
/ico/ …
6. In order to display a specific "Run MyScreens" screen when the "Custom" operating area
is shown the first time, the following entry is available in the template:
; Mask shown with startup of area "custom"
[Startup]
;Startup = Mask:=MyCustomStartupMask, File:=mycustommasks.com
Typically, SINUMERIK Operate is started directly with a specific "Run MyScreens" screen.
The "startuparea" key must be set as follows in the "[miscellaneous]" section of the
systemconfiguration.ini file:
[miscellaneous]
;name of the area to be shown at system startup
startuparea = Custom
"Custom" operating area
