r. Basic use of (machine controller) operator’s console. Operator’s console operates like terminal keyboard.
Set of two symbols, numbers, or letters is printed above each key on main keypad. Just pressing key will input
symbol, letter, or number printed to left into display. To input what is printed to right, shift (SHF) key must be
pressed first to enable right-hand functions. Shift key will stay in effect until it is pressed again. Arrows on
numeric keypad are only active if JOG is pressed. If numeric keys are pressed without pressing JOG, number
above key is input to display. Basic procedure for using console is as follows:
(1) Turn on machine controller.
(2) Press RESET.
(3) Press key on main keypad for desired function.
NOTE
If you press two or more keys simultaneously, operator’s console will behave
erratically and you will have to start over.

list of OP codes and their uses) and then CR (carriage return) pressed to activate code.
NOTE
When OP code is typed into display using main keypad, it will appear in right
corner of display when first typed. If syntax is correct, i.e., if code is typed
correctly, it will move to left side of display when CR is pressed. if code is
incorrect, it will disappear when CR is pressed.
