Always confirm your input with the "Input" key. The value is accepted.
With this key, you can switch to the next value in the selection list
without displaying the entire list (e.g. to select from only a small
number of values/settings).
• The editor displays only the characters which can be input via the
operator panel front keyboard.
• A part program opened by the editor cannot be simultaneously
started in the NC (enable is canceled); an alarm (14014) is
indicated in this case. If the control is switched off while the editor
is open, the enable might have to be set manually.
Confirm input:
Your inputs are accepted when you press the "OK" softkey. The
selected function is executed. The window is closed, and you return to
the menu level from which the window was called.
Cancel input:
Your inputs are rejected if you select the "Abort" softkey. The selected
function is aborted. The window is closed and you return to the menu
level from which the window was called.
This is the same as when returning from a function (vertical softkey
bar).
The "Edit" key can also have an "Undo" function if you abandon the
input/modification you have just entered. The cursor remains
positioned in the currently selected field.
Switch from the horizontal menu level back to the call menu level.
