Keypad Description
The MiniOCS keypad contains 10 user-programmable keys, Esc, Enter and four direction keys. The
user-programmable keys, or function keys, also serve the purpose of numeric and alphabetic character
entry. Function keys F1-F10 are available (%K registers). Depending on the configuration of the
MiniOCS and the field needing to be edited, the MiniOCS automatically knows what type of digit or
alphanumeric character needs to be entered.
The MiniOCS keypad also contains four direction keys. The
↑
and
↓
keys contain split fields. The
↑
key
also contains the +/- function. The
↓
key also contains the . function. Similar to the operation of the
function keys, the MiniOCS automatically knows if a decimal point or a positive or negative indicator is
required. The
↑
and
↓
keys are also used to increment and decrement fields, respectively. The
←
and
→
keys are used to move the cursor from one character to another in an editable field and to switch from
one editable field to another editable field.

selected fields.
