Only axes that have been setup in the AXIS CONFIGURATION will
appear in the form. Graphic positioning aid will be retained on a
power cycle.
Stopwatch
The stopwatch shows the hours (h), minutes (m), seconds (s). It
operates like a stop watch showing elapsed time.
The watch starts timing from 0:00:00 when the START soft key is
pressed and stops when STOP is pressed.
It will be reset to 0:00:00 when RESET is pressed. Resetting will stop
the watch if it is running.
The elapsed time field shows the total accumulated time from each
interval.
All stop watch functions are applied immediately. When running, both
the status bar and stop watch and the elapsed time field are updated
in real-time.
