5.4 Working with contacts and coils
5.4.13 Switching with the cursor buttons
You can use the four cursor buttons on the easyE4 device as hardwired inputs in the
circuit diagram.
The P buttons can be used for testing circuits or for manual operation. The button
function is a useful addition for service and commissioning tasks.
Fig. 112: The cursor buttons are wired in the circuit diagram as contacts P 01 to P 04.
Requirement:
The P buttons must have been enabled in the system menu.
Example 1
This standard circuit diagram example enables a lamp at output Q1 to either be
switched on or off via the inputs I1 and I2 or via the cursor buttons ÍÚ.
Fig. 113: Switch Q1 via I1, I2, Í, or Ú
Example 2
This circuit diagram example causes output Q1 to be actuated by input I1. I5 switches
to cursor operation and disconnects the rung I01 via M01.

The easyE4 device only evaluates P button entries if the
status display is shown.
The Status menu display shows whether the P buttons are used in the circuit dia-
gram.
