To enable an intuitive configuration of a control (S) or of a total plant, a control (S) for the safe controlling of at least one machine (R, St) is provided comprising a control module (SM) for generating output signals in dependence on input signals, wherein the input signals are provided by at least one connected signal generator and the output signals are communicated to the at least one machine (R, St), and wherein the control module (SM) has a display (D, D1) for displaying information of the control (S), said display being movably supported in the control module (SM) such that a moving of the display (D), D1) with respect to the control module (SM) corresponds to an input to the control (S).
