Set up Numeric Input Enable buttons

The operator can press the Numeric Input Enable button to open a numeric pop-up keypad
or scratchpad, enter a number in the keypad or scratchpad, and then send the number to
the data source.

For more information about using the Numeric Input Enable button at run time, see
page 17-14.

You can also set up the Numeric Input Enable button to work as a Ramp button. In this
case, when the button has focus, the operator can press a move up or move down button to
change a tag by either an integer or floating-point value. The operator can also press the
Up Arrow or Down Arrow on the keyboard or keypad to ramp the value.

To set up a Numeric Input Enable button

1. Double-click the Numeric Input Enable button.

2. In the button’s Properties dialog box, fill in the options on each tab:

In the General tab, specify what the button looks like at run time, whether the
operator can navigate to the button using the keys on the keyboard or keypad, and
whether the operator can press the button to give it focus.
