Input windows comprise several input fields. You can move the
cursor to the desired input field with the vertical arrow keys. The CNC
PILOT shows the function of the selected field in the footer of the
window.
Place the highlight on the desired input field and enter the data.
Existing data are overwritten. With the horizontal arrow keys, you can
move the cursor within the input field and place it on the position
where you want to delete, copy or add characters.

the windows, press the PG UP/PG DN keys.
