alarms alternatively, you can set this in the display machine data MD 9056:
ALARM_ROTATION_CYCLE.
The following settings can be made:
< 500:
500 – 10000:
If a valid display duration is set, each alarm is displayed for this time before being
replaced by the next alarm.
Messages will not be displayed alternatively.

Inch/metric switchover

The availability of the softkey, and thus the associated functionality, can be
configured using the general NCK machine data MD 10260.
In the "Machine" operating area, you can switch between the inches measuring
system and the metric measuring system via a softkey. If you want to display the
"Switch to inch" or "Switch to mm" softkey, set the machine data as follows:
MD 10260: CONVERT_SCALING_SYSTEM ≠ 0
