OUCHSCREEN INTRODUCTION
Your machine has been equipped with a “Human Machine Interface” or HMI or -more popular
called-: A touch screen.
If you are familiar with touch screen operation, found nowadays on modern cell phones,
navigation systems, informational displays etc. you may want to skip this section. If however,
this is the first time you are using a touch screen, please keep in mind that in contradiction with
older fashioned operating panels utilizing mechanical buttons, lamps and displays, both the dis-
plays and images on a touch screen can be interactive too, meaning they will react on a touch
by your finger. The interface on the touch screen is optimized for ergonomic operation. In prac-
tice this means that all objects are
positioned and sized such, that they can be touched easily with your finger without the need for
a stylus or precise positioning. A soft tipped stylus can be used if preferred, but is normally not
required for proper operation.
Touching objects on a touch screen can be compared with a mouse-click on a computer screen.
Based on the shown graphical user interface and your finger’s position on the screen, the sys-
tem can
determine what action it should take when an object is touched.
To prevent accidental, unwanted actions some objects may require a prolonged
touch, meaning you should keep your fingers pressed longer on a certain object
(like a button or display) to invoke the required action.
Example : The RUN/STOP button to start the programmer on the operation screen requires a
prolonged touch for about 1 sec.
