You can use the PC keyboard for menu operations rather than using the
instrument front panel keys or buttons. Use the keyboard to input the file name,
directory name, and text in the Text/Equation editors. The PC keyboard character
keys, ten keys, arrow keys, space key and shift key can be used in place of the
front panel keys, buttons, and some menu operation commands. Table 3–43 lists
other edit operations you can perform from the PC keyboard.
