KEYPAD FUNCTIONS, CONT.

Alpha-Numeric Keys

The alpha-numeric keys are used to enter commands and data into the indicator during
Calibration and Setup as well as during normal operations.

NUMERIC KEYS (1 to 9 and 0)

These keys are used to enter numeric data during the setup and calibration as well as
during normal operation of the indicator. Note that they have alternate meanings. In the
alphanumeric mode, when combined with the SHIFT key, their alternate meaning is output.
For example, pressing the SHIFT key and then the 4 key will output the $ dollar sign.

←⎯ /ESC KEY

This key has several functions. During Setup, when a setup parameter is displayed,
pressing this key will "backup" to the previous selection. Also note that on prompts requiring
a value to be entered, pressing the

←⎯ /ESC key will clear the value.


In normal operation, this key is used during numeric data input to delete a number entered.
If the last number entered is incorrect, press the

←⎯ /ESC key once to deleted the number.

If more than the last number is incorrect, press the

←⎯ /ESC key for each number to be

deleted. Note that if a number has not been entered, the indicator will ignore this key.

QWERTY KEYS

These keys are used to enter alpha data during Calibration and Setup as well as during
normal operations. Pressing the SHIFT key before pressing an alpha key will toggle the key
to output its alternate meaning. For example, pressing the SHIFT key then the A key will
output a lower case “a” (not a capital letter).

ENTER KEY

The ENTER key serves several purposes. During Calibration and Setup (as well as during
normal operations), pressing the key will retain the current setting and return the display to
the menu display. It is also used when entering or changing data to signal the completion of
data entry. The data entered will then be processed or saved.

During normal operations it is used in combination with the SHIFT key to increase the LCD
contrast.

SPACE

This key is used to enter a blank space during alpha-numeric data input for Calibration and
Setup as well as during normal operations. When combined with the SHIFT key, it is used
to decrease the display contrast.
