Using the CIM Display, Continued
The online help function of the CIM Display represents a large leap
forward in usability over the original HMI. It allows the user to obtain a
help description for virtually every element displayed on the screen. It
also allows the user to obtain detailed descriptions of alarms as well as
possible causes and suggested corrective actions.
Accessing Help
To access help touch the help icon (
) on the upper right corner of the
CIM display (or click on the icon if using the emulator). This puts the
software in an interactive help mode. This mode is context sensitive. This
means that for the next item you touch (or click), the software will display
a help window for that item.
Context Sensitive
Screen Help
In the figure below, the help icon was selected and then the “Temp” icon
on the toolbar. This displayed the help text window in the middle of the
screen.

Click OK to remove the window and continue. Note that once the window
is removed, the software is no longer in the help mode. Clicking a
selection will have the normal effect.
