9.9.2 Configuring Quick Keys

To configure Quick Keys, you must be using an Operator Window with keyboard focus. In this window, call
up the display which is to be assigned to a Quick Key. Click Set; stippling now appears on previously
assigned Quick Keys, protecting them from accidental re-assignment. All other Quick Keys are available
for assignment. The pointer assumes the shape of a plus sign (+). Click the Quick Key to be used to call up
the display which appears in the Operator Window. A new window is displayed, as shown in

Figure 9-13

.

This window allows you to enter a text string of up to six characters in length. This text will appear on the
Quick Key. The default text string is the number of the Quick Key (1 to 64); the user can choose to discard
this numeric identifier. By using mnemonic identifiers and identifying the Quick Keys in this manner, the
user can see at a glance how keys are assigned. For an example, see

Figure 9-14

.

To exit Set mode without making an assignment, press the Set button a second time; the Quick Keys key-
pad will remain on display, allowing the user to use or make further changes to the Quick Keys.

Once a Quick Key assignment has been made, the user need only access the Quick Keys keypad display
and press the assigned Quick Key to call up that display in any Operator Window with keyboard focus.
