ASCII Scratchpads in Other Languages

The ASCII Scratchpad is available with Character Keyboards in:

French

German

Italian

Spanish

If the PanelView terminal is configured for operation in one of these
languages, the ASCII scratchpad will display the Character
Keyboard appropriate to the language.

The SHF control toggles between SHF/SHF2. In SHF mode, the
Character Keyboard displays the shifted state characters (e.g. a to A
and 3 to #). In the SHF2 mode, the Character Keyboard displays
additional characters available for the desired language.

The values of the extended ASCII characters match those in
Appendix H.
