ENTER (ENT) Used to accept an edited entry. Most menus prompt the user to

returned to the previous menu

IMPORTANT NOTE: The keypad has an auto-repeat feature. If a key is held down for

more than 1 second, the key action will repeat, automatically, at the

editing numeric fields, with many digits, such as frequency or data
rate.
