Each value is concluded by pressing the INPUT key.
Fig. 6-34 Line - circle geometric contour programming
Using the cursor keys, you can choose any input field, for example if you wish
to subsequently modify geometric values for the selected contour.
Watch out for input fields in which several values are marked in reverse video
in curly brackets on the screen ("X" and "Z" in the example).
In this case you can only enter one value (i.e. only the X value or only the Z
value in the example).
If you enter more than one value, then once the STORE softkey has been
pressed, the message "TOO MANY VALUES ENTERED" appears in the
dialog text line.
