You select command buttons in one of the following ways:
• Press the EDIT key until the desired command button is selected.
• Press the INPUT key to execute the action.
As with the items in a menu bar, the SINUMERIK 840C displays the command
buttons of a dialog box in the softkey bar. You can therefore select a command
button by pressing the appropriate softkey.
Note
Buttons are only displayed as softkeys if the dialog box is not system modal.
System modal dialog boxes are usually only displayed by the operating
system. They must be filled in or acknowledged before the user can continue
working in the application or switch to a different application.
System modal dialog boxes can only be operated on the MF2 keyboard on the
keyboard input of the MMC module. They cannot be operated using the
operator panel keyboard.
When you select a command button, the dialog box is closed and the command
is executed.
You can also close a dialog box to cancel a command.
• Press the EDIT key until the "Cancel" button is selected and then press the
INPUT key
or
• Press the SOFTKEY assigned to the button.
