SINUMERIK 840Di sl/840D sl/840D Operating Manual HMI-Advanced (BAD) - 01/2008 Edition
If transfer is possible, the instruction selected in the overview is
inserted directly in the part program with "Transfer to editor".
If an instruction selected when context sensitivity is active differs from
the programmed instruction, the programmed instruction is
overwritten.
If extended context sensitivity is not active or if a different selection is
displayed with "Find", "Topics" or "General overview", the selected
instruction text is inserted in the part program after the instruction
marked by the cursor.
As an alternative to returning to the editor by transferring an entry, this
softkey can be selected to close the Help window and return to the
part program writing screen.
Apart from context-sensitive help, it is also possible to search
independently of context for instructions, descriptive texts or topics.
With "General overview" a full overview of the instructions and
relevant descriptive text stored in the help system is displayed.
With "Topics" the stored topics are listed for which a functional
grouping of the instructions can be displayed.
To select a topic, you can either use the cursor keys or enter the topic
number in an input box.
If a topic is selected and you press "Input" or the "Display topic"
softkey, the instructions associated with the selected topic are
displayed.
