The character string for inscription of a traversing key is to be entered between the already
existing quotation marks, e.g. "LIN_X". A maximum of 2 lines are available for inscription of a
traversing key. It is recommended, the specification in the file notwithstanding, that only a
max. of 8 characters be used per line. For a two-line inscription, the two character strings
must be separated by two blanks following one after the other (line break).

Activating user softkeys
A total of 16 user softkeys are available on HT 8. The user softkeys are without any function
by default. The functionality of the user softkeys must be implemented by the user (machine
manufacturer) in the PLC user program. Hence, it is the sole responsibility of the user
(machine manufacturer) to undertake any required interlockings for the activation or
coordination in the process sequence of user functions as compared to other user functions
or default functions.
Display of the user softkeys in the input data area
The user softkeys designated by default as U1 to U16 are displayed in the input data area as
follows:
