F7 (Diag) Main-Util-Info-Diag
F7 (Diag) displays the following screen, which shows the diagnostics of the machine just prior to

The screen will blank automatically and remain blank until any key is pressed. Block stops, tool
changes, requests for cycle start, etc. will unblank the screen, prompt the operator, and then
reblank the screen. There is also a timer to blank the screen if keys are not pressed in a set
amount of time. See page 53, Section 4 concerning screen blank time parameter.
