Explanations:
● For the first line, for example, this means:
If an Action 100 is initiated when in state (status/screen) 10, the softkey menu configured
in the param.com file will be displayed with the name Softkey1.
● For the last line, for example, this means:
If Action 102 is initiated, the dialog with the name Screen form2 will be called in the
current dialog. This dialog is configured in the param1.com file.
