Navigation Buttons

User Interface Features

Navigation Buttons

Use the virtual Navigation Buttons to move around within the Menu Maps. Navigation buttons are grouped into four categories:

•INV or GEN buttons access Inverter or Generator features.

•The Menu Heading buttons access the Menu Headings for each menu map.

•The Menu Item buttons navigate through the menu items associated with each menu heading.

•The (+) or (–) buttons modify system parameters.

Pressing the virtual Navigation Buttons in ICAP will not take the user past the End Menu in each Menu Map like the ICM does.

ICAP Keyboard and Terminal Emulation Keyboard Shortcut Com- mands

•Table 3-1 lists keystrokes available in both ICAP and when using terminal emulation with the ICA program.

•Table 3-2 lists keystrokes available only in ICAP.

•Table 3-3 lists keystrokes available only when using terminal emulation with the ICA program.
