3.If you want to change the value of any of the other fields, use your keyboard keys to select the field you want to edit: Press [Tab] to move forward through the editable fields, [Shift]+[Tab] to move backward, the up- and down-arrow keys to move up and down, and the left- and right-arrow keys to move left and right.

Press [Enter] to begin editing; the highlighted area will turn green, and the prompt in the prompt/message bar will change to “-Change Ent-Done ESC-Cancel”. Follow the instructions below for interpreting and editing each specific User Profile parameter.

When you’re finished, either press [Enter] to retain the changes (the highlighted area will turn yellow) or press [Esc] (or any function key that would cause you to leave this screen) to cancel the changes. The prompt in the prompt/message bar will change to “Save the changes (Y/N/ESC)”. (It will do this before you leave the screen if you pressed a function key.) Press “S” to save the changes to long-term memory, “N” to discard your changes, or [Esc] to discard your changes and exit the menu.

Here’s what the User Profile parameters mean and how you can change their settings:

Scan Mode: The method the system uses to determine how long to pause at each channel during autoscanning (see Section 6.7). The two possible settings are “Global” (the default), in which the system pauses at each channel for the same length of time (which you choose—see the next paragraph), and “Individual,” in which the system pauses at each channel for the length of time that the administrator has set for that individual channel (as displayed in the Selection Menu). Use any of the arrow keys to toggle between these values.

Global Scan Rate: If Scan Mode is set to “Global” (see the previous paragraph), this parameter determines the length of time that the system pauses at each channel while scanning. Using leading zeroes if necessary, type in a two-digit number of seconds from 01 to 24, or use the up- and down-arrow keys to increment and decrement the current value by 1 respectively. The default setting is 03.
