ABSTRACT:
A control device for a printing machine is described, in particular a sheet-fed offset press, having a movable operating element and a device which senses the movements thereof, as well as a downstream electronic valuation system. Such already known control devices, which are equipped with a rollerball, joystick or mouse as operating element, are to be improved with regard to ergonomic operability. This is achieved according to the invention by designing the operating element as a wheel mounted capable of rotating about an axis. The movement of this wheel is sensed by an electronic evaluation system, and highlights selectable menu items in accordance with a prescribed sequence on a display device. After the desired menu item has been marked by rotating the wheel forward or backward, the desired function is initiated by actuating a command initiation key.
