With the soft keys directly below the screen, you can select
functions, capture position values, confirm entries, and a lot more.
With the
ERR
key you can call error and PLC information.
The data input keypad (operating panel) serves to enter machine
data, position data, etc.The MANUALplus 620 does not need an
alphanumeric keyboard. Tool descriptions, program descriptions
or comments in an NC program are entered with an on-screen
alphabetic keyboard. The machine operating panel contains all
necessary controls for manual operation of the lathe.
Cycle programs, ICP contours, and NC programs are stored in
memory in the control.
For data exchange and data backup, you can use the
Ethernet
interface or the USB interface .
If you are using a control with touch operation, you can
replace some keystrokes with hand gestures.
