User interface
You can interact with MC6-T by tapping on available buttons/controls
displayed on the touch screen. Optionally: use the hardware arrow keys
to move between the available buttons/controls. The first time you push a
hardware arrow key the Hardware Focus Indicator is displayed (a blue
border around the active button/control). When using the hardware arrow
keys, use the hardware Enter key to select ("tap") a button/control.

Buttons often open a pop-up window for entering data, e.g. a unit button
with the text "mmH
2
O" opens a pop-up window of available units. Certain
buttons do have special functionality, like "Accept" and "Close" buttons.
They close a pop-up window and either accept or reject the changes.
There are other buttons, e.g. for going to the next/previous page pages,
scrolling through a wide table of data, removing a number in a numeric
field (backspace), clearing a numeric field, etc. Most of them are familiar
since they look similar as in personal computer software.

One important button is the Menu button which is available in the upper
left corner of almost any window. Tap on it to open a context-sensitive
menu with a software version of the Home button.
