Operating the Touch Panel
Several of the FPC front panel operations require data entry, input and output selection, or
both. These operations are performed using an on-screen keyboard, on-screen keypads, or
on-screen scroll boxes.
Using the Keyboards
When you take a step that requires entering alphanumeric characters, an on-screen
keyboard appears (see figure 12).
Figure 12.
Typical On-screen Keyboard
•
Clear the field in which you need to enter data by touching the <Clear Field>
key
or by repeatedly touching the <Backspace>
key.
•
Touch the correct characters on the keyboard just as you would on a physical keyboard.
•
The <Insert ESC>
and <Insert CR>
keys are only used when editing
Simple Instruction Set™ (SIS™) commands while programming User Function keys (see
”
” on page 43). The keyboard does not display these keys for
other functions.
•
To enter capital letters or the alternate characters on the numeric keys, touch the
<Shift> key
or <Caps Lock> key
. Either key locks the keyboard to capitals
only, just like the <Caps Lock> key on a physical keyboard. Touch the desired letter or
number keys and then touch the <Caps Lock> key again to return to lower case.
•
To enter the typed in characters and dismiss the on-screen keyboard, touch the
<Enter> key.
•
To dismiss the on-screen keyboard without entering the typed in characters,
touch the <Cancel> key.
