Working with your SPT 1500

Using Menus

Menus are a special set of commands that are available in most of your SPT 1500 terminal
applications (Memo Pad, Date Book, etc.). The exact commands that appear in the menus
depend on the application that is currently running on your SPT 1500 terminal.

Some menu commands are common to all SPT 1500 terminal applications. The common
menu commands are described in this section; other menu commands are described in the
chapters within this manual about each SPT 1500 terminal application.

To activate the menus:

1. Open a SPT 1500 terminal application (such as the Memo Pad, as described earlier

in this chapter).

2. Tap the

icon to open the menus for the application at the top of the screen.

Button.Tap a button to perform a command. Buttons
appear with different text depending on their function. In
most cases, tapping a button opens or closes a dialog. A
dialog is a screen that appears on your SPT 1500 terminal,
prompting you to enter information or make settings. A
dialog always contains an OK, Cancel or Done button, so
you can close the dialog when you are through with it. The
on-screen keyboard is an example of a dialog.

Scroll bar. Drag the slider to scroll the display one line at a
time. To scroll to the previous page, tap the arrow at the top
of the scroll bar. To scroll to the next page, tap the arrow at
the bottom of the scroll bar.
