The text boxes listed in the table below must be typed into, checked or
filled by completing a menu selection. The cursor keys are used for navi-
gation between the individual text boxes within the mask. In text boxes
permitting direct entry, the text or number is simply typed in. In check-
boxes (the entry is enclosed by brackets), cursor navigation uses either
the [SPACE] bar or the mouse. The display type for the variable is se-
lected via the Display menu on the current menu bar.

Fig. 9-45 Entry Fields of Variables Description, Example BT5
The E_TeilA variable is assigned the same format as the E_HPumpe. Ac-
cordingly, only the variable name and format name are entered (format
name also as selection list). In the case that the preexisting format is con-
firmed and accepted, the remaining fields will be automatically filled with
the correct entries (these entries form the format with the format name).
The complete procedural steps required to generate a new variable pos-
sessing a new format is described in detail in the preceding Section
8.4.4.3, "BT5 – Power-Up Conditions Mask No. 20."
With the above entries completed, the variable is ready for insertion into
the mask. Upon closing the window by pressing [ESCAPE] or the
[SHIFT+F10] shortcut, the changes can be saved or discarded. If the
mask is saved, the placeholder for the display length variable will be dis-
played in the mask.
