the function keys, controlling the display mode and backlight, password locks, calibration, etc.. The key is also used for
ESC ape. Use ESC to return to the previous menu, or display mode.

ver through menus combined with the cursor keys. Pressing ENTER before certain keys takes you directly into various
modes. Pressing ENTER before a Function key enacts the alternate Function key mode.

F1 defaults to NEXT ID . Pressing F1 will change you to the next defined ID. Any data field or 9850 function can be
assigned to this key. The blue light will illuminate when the button is pressed to indicate the 9850 is waiting for Data
(when the key is assigned a Data field type).
F2, F3, and F4 are for user defined Data entry. Any data field or 9850 function can be assigned to
these keys. When these keys are programmed for Data entry, the blue light will illuminate when
the button is pressed indicating the 9850 is waiting for data. These default to Get Barcode 1-3.
F5 defaults to RF ADDRESS . The RF ADDRESS key is used to log on to other CellScale Networks. Pressing the
ADDRESS key alone will change the active network to the next defined Network. Preceding the RF ADDRESS key
with a Network number (0-63) will cause the 9850 to log directly on the entered Network, if it exists and is active. If
changing the network is not necessary, any data field or 9850 function can be assigned to this key.
F6 defaults to
SEND/PRINT ALL . The action of this key is dictated by the Function key menu, but is usually used to send
data to the CellScale or one of its hosts. If the Send/Print function is not necessary, any data field or 9850 function can be
assigned to this key. The blue light will illuminate until the Send/Print function is completed and acknowledged.
F7 defaults to NEXT CHANNEL . When the CellScale has more than 1 channel defined in its Scan List, the F7 key
will select the next active channel in the list. Precede the NEXT CHANNEL key with a numeric entry (1-32) to switch
directly to a channel scan list position. Press SETUP-CHANNEL for a shortcut to the “Channel Setup Menu”. If chang-
ing the channel is not necessary (as in single channel scale systems), any data field or 9850 function can be assigned to
this key.
F8 defaults to
TOTAL . Pressing this key will cause the current weighment to be added to the total register (Manual Total
mode). In Auto-Total modes, the TOTAL key turns Auto-total off and on. If the Total function is not necessary, any data
field or 9850 function can be assigned to this key.
F9 defaults to
VIEW TOTAL . When pressed the information display will show the Totals screen with links to the statistics
and grand total screens. Press VIEW TOTAL again to return to the previous screen. LFT 9850’s default F9 to the UNITS
function. Pressing this key will change the operational units (if enabled) of the current focus channel. If the View Total
function is not necessary, any data field or 9850 function can be assigned to this key.
F10 defaults to
DISPLAY . The DISPLAY key is used to alternate between single channel displays and multiple chan-
nel displays. While in the multiple channel display, highlight the desired channel using the UP/DOWN Cursor keys,
then press DISPLAY to bring up the single channel display. This selected channel is the “Active” or “Focus” channel to
which all subsequent actions will be applied. Provides the overwrite cursor (the cursor defaults to insert mode) function
in text and data entry screens.
The Cursor keys are used to select the active channel while in multiple display modes. The active channel is displayed
on the LED display. While in setup menus, the cursor keys are used to navigate menu choices and to control the text
editing cursor.
CLEAR
C The CLEAR key is used for deleting entries and editing. In data entry screens, pressing CLEAR deletes the character
in front of the blinking cursor.
EXIT
The Decimal Point key is used in numeric entries. The EXIT function is used to exit out of setup screens. EXIT will cause
the 9850 to exit out of all levels of menus and return the LCD to the last weight display. This differs from the ESC key
which just backs you up one menu level.
