Publication 2711E-6.15 – November 1998
The following illustration shows a Small ASCII Input Object for a
keypad terminal.
Buttons of the ASCII Input Object
The object’s buttons function differently, depending on the terminal
type.
The following buttons are used to edit the string displayed in the
scratchpad:
•
SHF (Shift) (Large ASCII Input object for touch screens
only)—By default this button is off, and labels appear
non-shifted. When this button is on, the Shift key is displayed in
reverse video. All the character keys, including numbers and
symbols, display and are entered in their shifted state. For
example, “a” becomes “A”; “2” becomes “:”.
•
CAPS (Large ASCII Input object for touch screens only)—By
default this button is off, and labels appear in lower case. When
on, the button is displayed in reverse video, and the labels appear
in upper case. With CAPS on, letters are input in upper case, but
numbers and symbols are not shifted. The state is maintained
across power cycles and screen changes.
•
INS (Insert)—toggles the keyboard between insert and overstrike
modes. The state is maintained across power cycles and screen
changes.
