ABSTRACT:
A control panel includes electronically addressable display means and a removable opaque overlay. The overlay has transparent graphics indicating machine options for primary functions. The machine options are selectively backlit by the display means to indicate a particular option. When the overlay is removed the display means operates in its conventional manner to guide the operator through more complex special features.
