PanelView 300, 300 Micro Thumbwheel Scratchpad
The thumbwheel scratch pad allows an operator to enter values on
terminals without a numeric keypad or touch screen by cycling
through the available characters one position at a time. Use the Up
and Down cursors to cycle through the available characters. The
thumbwheel scratchpad shows:
• display area where the value is entered or modified
• ESC - F1 key to exit the scratchpad without saving any changes
or sending a value.
Scroll through and select digits 0-9. You can select the sign (+, -)
from the leftmost column. If the decimal point is keypad controlled,
you can also select a decimal point (if one has not been previously
selected).
