Data queries with multiple fields

It is possible to have two input fields in a data query. An example of this is a user name and password query: one field is then a normal alphanumeric editor and the other a password editor. In this case, a press of the Selection key moves the insertion point from the first field to the next; in the second field it accepts the query. The left softkey always accepts the query. The user can also move from one field to the other using scroll up and scroll down.

Indicators

Indicators are graphical or textual objects on screen that provide information about the status of the system. They cannot be used for input, and there is no focus on an indicator: the user cannot point at an indicator to do actions.

The various indicator types in use are described in the following subsections.

Signal and battery indicators

The top-left area of the screen is used for the cellular signal strength indicator, and the corresponding top-right area for the battery level indicator.
