Figure 22. All Modem Screens Have Common Navigational Methods

When viewing modem configuration screens, keep in mind that not all menus provide options
that you can command. Some screens only report status, such as revision number, module type, or
number of alarms generated. Other screens allow the user to toggle through options using the
space bar or tab key, and select an option by pressing Enter.

To navigate the screens, four keys are largely used:

Space Bar: When a menu item is highlighted, it signifies that the operator can chose from a

number of options for that menu item. (For example, on the Loopback option,
shown in the screen above, when Norm is highlighted, there other options besides
Norm that can be chosen). Use the Space Bar to toggle through all available options
for that menu item.
