4.2.2 Configuration in the KEYS.INI file
Overview
Every instance of the KEYS.INI configuration file in the above directories drives the the
hotkey responses in a section [KeyConfiguration]. Every entry (line) defines the response of
the system to a specific actuation (in the sense of multiple actuation of specific hotkeys).
These are referred to as hotkey events below.
KEYS.INI configuration file
The KEYS.INI configuration file has a dedicated section for assigning the ini files for PLC
keys. Without this entry, the ini files will not be detected.
The default settings are as follows:
[HMI_INI_FILES]
Task0 = machine.ini
Task1 = paramet.ini
Task2 = program.ini
Task3 = services.ini
Task4 = diagnose.ini
Task5 = startup.ini
Task6 = shopmill.ini
(Alternatively: Task6 = shopturn.ini depending on the system, mandatory! )
Task11=custom.ini
Note
A power On is required in order for the changes to KEYS.INI to take effect.
Entry format
Details about the input format can be found under "Hotkey event". To better understand the
repeated actuation of the same hotkey used in that subsection, multiple keypress will be
described first.
Multiple keypress
A function extension determines the sequence when the hotkey is pressed repeatedly: The
number "n" in the key data in file KEYS.INI represents the number of keypress repeats, thus
allowing a separate task/state/action combination to be assigned each time the hotkey is
pressed. This means that each time the key is pressed, a change of state can take place,
and a screen and a softkey can be selected.
