Selecting Menu Items

The menu items in the 9700 are arranged in a set. Pressing the key will toggle between sets of menus, while the key will toggle between menu items within the current set. Hold down the Left arrow key to receive a short description of the current menu item. Pressing and holding the Right arrow key will display the valid range for that item.

Numeric Input Mode

When the current item is numeric, the system enters the Numeric Input mode. In this mode, the Left and Right arrow keys are used to select a digit to edit. The selected digit blinks to identify itself as the active digit. The Up and Down arrow keys are then used to increment or decrement this digit. When the left most digit is active, pressing and holding the Left arrow key will display a brief description of the current item. When the right most digit is active, pressing and holding the Right arrow key will display the range and units for the current item.

Item Edit Mode

When the current item is non-numeric, the Up and Down arrow keys are used to select among different options for the entry. The Left and Right arrow keys are used to display a description of the item.
