3-3.1.5 Function Keys
The function keys F1, F2, F3 and F4 appearing next to the display are

mode. The current function of each key is shown in the options area of
the display, next to the key. For example, on the PROG screen you can
press F2 to start programming the ALE parameters.
If a certain function key is not used, no label appears next to the key

corresponding direction.

among the programmable parameters.
