Backspace

The backspace key is used to move the cursor to the left when entering numbers in a field, such as RF Gen Freq. Each press of this key moves the cursor one place to the left, erasing the previous character.

GPIB Example

No equivalent GPIB command

Down-Arrow, Up-Arrow

These keys increment (up-arrow) or decrement (down-arrow) field values. The increment value is determined by the Increment set (:INCRement) data function.These keys are also used to select alternate field entries without displaying the Choices menu used by some fields. They are also used to move the cursor in string entry fields (such as the Print Title field on the PRINTER CONFIGURE screen).
