Example: Using object keys to open and close valves
A graphic display shows a tank with two valves, named Valve 1 and Valve 2.
The valves control the flow in and out of the tank. Both valves are set up with the same
object key animation:
F2 = Open
F3 = Close
At run time, the operator can select either Valve 1 or Valve 2, and press F2 to open the
valve or F3 to close it.
