Observation device with separate operating unit

摘要

The invention is directed to an observation device in which a user observes objects or process flows and influences the display of the object or the flow of the process by entering operating commands and control demands. The observation device is outfitted with an operating unit which is spatially separable with respect to the rest of the components of the observation device. According to the invention, a device for displaying and presetting adjustment values relating to the device parameters and/or a device for displaying images of the object or process flow to be observed are provided at the operating unit. These display devices can preferably be constructed as a touch screen which enables an optical display of the adjusted device parameters and a graphic display of the object or process flow to be observed and makes it possible to enter operating commands and control commands by touching the display surface
