Keypad Menu Structure

Most op erations using t he keypad are menu-dri ven. A menu consists of a title bar on the top di splay

line and as many as three options (or sub-menus) at a time on the bottom display line. Each option

is displayed above one of the function keys , F1, F2, or F3. Press a functio n key to select the

corresponding option.

If a menu has more than three options, arrows will appear on both sides of the display to indicate that

more options are available. Press the appropriate arrow key to scroll, one display at a time, through

all options in that menu. To exit a menu without making a selection, or to back up one menu level,

press ESC.
