4 Soft keys
The soft keys at the device have no symbols. Their function is defined
in the bottom screen line, where the current function of each key is
displayed as a text string or as a symbol.
The keys have symbols to explain the possible actions, in the above
example:
no function, up-arrow, down-arrow, Enter
The current position inside the menu tree is shown in the middle of the
bottom screen line.
You can scroll through the menu with the "up-arrow" and "down-arrow"
soft keys.
The menu position/numbering is indicated by the main menu and max.
4 submenus, i.e. it is a max. 5-character alphanumeric combination and
is shown in the following format: "4-A-3-1-2".
(the numbering of the menu items within the menu goes from 1 to 9,
higher positions are continued with capital letters because of the limited
space in the display:
from "A" (=10), "B" (=11) to "Z" (=35).
The font size of the current position string depends on the number of
submenus to be displayed.

SP/PV
The trend of the process value PV from standard (4...20 mA) and
frequency signal inputs is shown as chart and regularly updated.
The example shows a trend chart of set point SP and process value PV -
the inscription ("SP/PV") only names the trend chart without identifying
any soft key.
“HOLD“ freezes the display (“CONT” continues displaying the trend.)
