F1

Help

 

Pressing F1 on any menu invokes the general Help window. This window describes the

 

 

 

Setup key legend. The up arrow, down arrow, Page Up, Page Down, Home, and End

 

 

 

keys scroll the text in this window.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Enter

Execute Command

 

The Enter key is used to activate sub-menus when the selected feature is a sub-menu,

 

 

 

or to display a pick list if a selected option has a value field, or to select a sub-field for

 

 

 

multi -valued features like time and date. If a pick list is displayed, the Enter key will undo

 

 

 

the pick list, and allow another selection in the parent menu.

 

 

 

 

 

ESC

Exit

 

The ESC key provides a mechanism for backing out of any field. This key will undo the

 

 

 

pressing of the Enter key. When the ESC key is pressed while editing any field or

 

 

 

selecting features of a menu, the parent menu is re-entered.

 

 

 

When the ESC key is pressed in any major menu, the exit confirmation window is

 

 

 

displayed and the user is asked whether changes can be discarded.

 

 

 

 

 

Select Item

 

The up arrow is used to select the previous value in a pick list, or the previous options in

 

 

 

a menu item's option list. The selected item must then be activated by pressing the

 

 

 

Enter key.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Select Item

 

The down arrow is used to select the next value in a menu item’s option list, or a value

 

 

 

field’s pick list. The selected item must then be activated by pressing the Enter key.

 

 

 

 

 

Select Menu

 

The left and right arrow keys are used to move between the major menu pages. The

 

 

 

keys have no affect if a sub-menu or pick list is displayed.
