Text conventions
The actual keys on the console panel are referred to as KEYS. Panel KEYS are in BOLD CAPS.
The keys on the touch screens are referred to as BUTTONS. Touch screen BUTTONS are
BOLD, ITALICIZED CAPS.
Command line text and messages appear in italics. Command line refers to area where the
command chain is displayed.
# refers to numbers entered on the numeric keypad.
In operation sequences, optional keys or buttons appear in parentheses.
Example:
SPOT # (#) @ 65.
Key strokes are separated by commas when operation sequences are written in a single line.
Example:

When + appears between key or button names, it means: Press THIS (and) THAT at the same
time. Example:

The term Tap, Touch, and Click are used interchangeably when referring to the touch screen
buttons.
