YASNAC PCNC Operating Manual Chapter 3: HMI Process Operation
The arrow keys on the keyboard can be used to move about within the program. Additionally,
some shortcut keys, shown in Table 11 can be used to speed up the editing process.
At the bottom of the text area is a gray status bar, which displays “MOD” if the program has been
modified but changes have not yet been saved, and “CUR” if the program displayed is the cur-
rently running program.
Selecting the entire program:
• Switch to the Program:Editor screen and use the drop-down menu to load a program into
the text edit area.
• Type Ctrl-Home to position the cursor at the beginning of the program.
• Type Ctrl-Shift-End to select all text from the cursor position (at the beginning of the
program) to the end of the program.
The drop-down menu in the upper left corner lists all programs that have been opened using the
Program:File and Program:Editor screens. A maximum of 9 programs can be open at a time, and
once this limit is exceeded, the oldest is automatically closed when a new one is opened. Pro-
grams that are automatically opened (such as executed subprograms) will not appear in this list.
When a program is chosen from the menu, the text area will display that program. If another pro-
gram is being edited when a new one is selected, changes to that program are saved automatically.
Modified programs are also saved automatically when leaving the Program:Editor screen.
