The dialog between machinist and control takes place via:
 Screen
 Soft keys
 Data input keypad
 Machine operating panel
The entered data can be displayed and checked on the screen. With
the soft keys directly below the screen, you can select functions,
capture position values, confirm entries, and a lot more.
With the ERR key you can call error and PLC information.
The data input keyboard (operating panel) serves for the input of
machine data, positioning data, etc. The CNC Pilot has an
alphanumeric keyboard for easy input of tool descriptions, program
descriptions or comments in an NC program. The machine operating
panel contains all necessary controls for manual operation of the lathe.
Cycle programs, ICP contours and NC programs are stored in memory
in the CNC PILOT.
For data exchange and data backup, you can use the Ethernet
interface and the USB interface.
