Description

 

 

+

Change Value

 

The plus key on the keypad is used to change the value of the current menu

 

 

 

 

 

item to the next value. This key scrolls through the values in the associated

 

 

 

 

 

pick list without displaying the full list. On 106-key Japanese keyboards, the

 

 

 

 

 

plus key has a different scan code than the plus key on the other keyboard, but

 

 

 

 

 

will have the same effect.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

F9

Setup Defaults

Pressing F9 causes the following to appear:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Load default configuration now? (Y/N)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If the “Y” key is pressed, all Setup fields are set to their default values. If the

 

 

 

 

 

“N” key is pressed, or if the ESC key is pressed, the user is returned to where

 

 

 

 

 

they were before F9 was pressed without affecting any existing field values

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

F10

Save and Exit

 

Pressing F10 causes the following message to appear:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Save Configuration changes and exit now? (Y/N)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If the “Y” key is pressed, all changes are saved and Setup is exited. If the “N”

 

 

 

 

 

key is pressed, or the ESC key is pressed, the user is returned to where they

 

 

 

 

 

were before F10 was pressed without affecting any existing values.
