6.1.2 Menu Structure and Operation
This chapter briefly explains the structure, functions and operation of SINEC
NCM.
The user interface is designed so that a menu bar is displayed in which you
can see all the function groups as a menu item, which provides for
programming and testing. The bottom edge of the screen contains the help
line, in which a specific help text is available for each pull-down menu item
(explanation see Fig. 6.1). The area between the menu bar and the help
line is for the user dialog. Here, the pull-down menu items, help texts,
special windows etc. are displayed.
