Object Function
Goto Screen Buttons (4) Each button is configured to call up a different screen on
the terminal. At runtime, when the operator presses a
button or its corresponding function key, the appropriate
screen appears, replacing the current screen.
Multistate Indicator (1) This object indicates to the operator that this screen is the
currently selected screen and can’t be called up.
What You Will Need to Add
You need to add a stapler feature that will indicate when there are
problems in the stapler area, such as the stapler being out of staples.
To do this, you will add two Multistate Indicator objects. These will
operate as a pair, exactly like the other six Multistate Indicator object
pairs in this screen.
Chapter 7 provides step-by-step instructions for creating and
configuring the two Multistate Indicators.
