1.2.4 Machine control panels
You can equip your milling machine with a SIEMENS machine control
panel or with a specific machine control panel supplied by the
machine manufacturer.
You use the machine control panel to initiate actions on the milling
machine such as traversing an axis or starting the machining of a
workpiece.
When functions are active, the LEDs on the corresponding keys on
the machine control panel light up.
