When the operator chooses PF3 ("rotate furniture") the program branches here. The Text (GTXS) function is used to prompt the operator to enter a rotation angle. Then the Request valuator (GRQVL) function calls for input from the valuator device on the workstation:


          LOOP:
               UNTIL STATUS = 1
               REQUEST VALUATOR (wkid, 1, status, value)
          END LOOP

The status parameter indicates whether a value was entered at the device. The program converts the value to radians and uses it for the rotation value in the next segment transformation.

Here is what the screen looks like during valuator input:
