6.1. Understanding the user interface

Steelwrist XControl control system (Generation 2) uses a touch screen interface to easily communicate with the
system. You point to objects on the screen to make your selections.

In this manual we will use the arrow key (>) to indicate when you need to point at several objects after each other.
For example: Menu > Controls means you first must press Menu and then press Controls.

The screen is divided into three parts:

1.

A status bar in the top of the screen

2.

A workspace in the center of the screen

3.

A navigation bar in the bottom of the screen

The status bar only shows information about selections that you made or something that the system wants to alert
you about.

The workspace is usually a series of buttons where you choose between different options and other information
that you may find useful. Some more advanced setting features are hidden as these are intended for service
personnel.

If you get support by phone, you can sometimes be asked to go into service mode. In that case you will get the
guidance you need to get there.

In the navigation bar all available buttons are indicated as colored buttons as follows:

1.

OK - confirm selection

2.

Exit without saving, return.

3.

Menu - go to menus for further settings or Clinometer

4.

Help - information about the screen you are on.

5.

Advance to next page if the menus have more than one page.

6.

Go back to the previous page if the menus have more than one page.

6.2. Operating mode

When XControl is started the following screen is shown. The status bar gives you information and you can make
different choices in the navigation bar:
