Switch Functions
Each pushbutton switch as two primary functions, indicated by the
upper and lower labels.
T A P a switch to access its upper function;
H O L D a switch for over 1/2 second to access its lower function.
Numeric Keypad: In addition to their tap/hold functions, ten of
the switches are labeled with digits 0 through 9. A digit can be
entered using either a TAP or HOLD (e.g.
5 , or 5 ). In some cases
the difference between the two is significant, as indicated below.
