F3 (DELETE)

erase the currently selected character and move all following
characters to the left by one position.

F4 (INSERT)

add a blank space before the currently selected character, moving all
following characters one position to the right.

F5 (OK)

assign the currently entered text to the item you’re naming.

F6 (CANCEL)

If you’re entering a long string of numbers, select the right-most digit on the display—
each number you enter from the keypad pushes the displayed numbers to the left.

You can set the VS-2480 so that numbers are entered from the keypad right-to-left (the
default method) or left-to-right. See “NUMERICS TYPE” on Page 364.

To enter “-” using the keypad, press “0” twice.
