Context
The controls provided by the Operating Panel are arranged in logical functional groups. This offers you clear and easy operation
with fast access to key functionality. The majority of the ST90 functions can be accessed using the trackball on the Operating Panel and the menu system shown in the ST90 presentation.
TipYou can also use a standard computer mouse to control the ST90. The mouse can be connected to either the Operating Panel or directly to the Processor Unit.
The ST90 supports two different operating panels. These are referred to as "Mk1" and "Mk2".
