3 General Displaying Areas and Actions Executed on Them

Each general displaying area is accessible any time, independent of the current operation mode or other states of control.

However actions belonging to the given display cannot be executed any time, the execution can depend on the mode or other states of control. For example editing of parameters can only be done in EDIT mode, although the list of parameters can be seen any time, in AUTOMATIC mode even during machining . If execution of an action is impossible in the given control mode, it is indicated by two arrows pointing at each other º» (conflicting state) in the status field of the seventh message line.

It is quite another matter, that the action may be able to be executed in any control mode, still the action will not be effective immediately. For example the tool offset value can be changed any time, even during milling, yet the machining must be interrupted (create INTD state) and restarted for the control to register the new offset value.
