Description This menu is used to input NORAD Ephemeris data.

Menu Key 6 (Next Field) steps the edit box through the three

entry fields. The NORAD string data is entered in the top

box. Char No: ___ indicates the position of the cursor in the

data string. As the cursor reaches the right end of the edit

box the data scrolls.

Data is entered/edited using Menu Keys 4 & 5 (A - Z and

Decimal Point) and the Numeric Keypad.

To enter an alphabet character position the cursor and press

Menu Key 4. Each press steps the character at the cursor

position through the alphabet.

Menu Key 5 inserts a decimal point at the cursor position.

The +/- key on the Numeric Keypad inserts a - or a space at

the cursor position. One press inserts a - and the next a

space.

Note Inserting a number causes the cursor to step to the next

character position. However inserting a letter, a - or a space

does not and the  key must be used to move on.

Min Intv = Minimum Interval

Day Perd = Day Period
