Programming
The Menu Window lists the network commands available from the
"Parameter Entry for Entire Project" screen. The Instruction Window
provides brief, context sensitive instructions for each operation.
There are up to 11 network parameters on the "Parameter Entry for
Entire Project" screen which must be filled out, depending on the type
of network operation being configured. Only the parameters
appropriate to the system being configured appear on the display.

matching the bold letter in the parameter title.
For example, to move the cursor to the “Geographic Category”
window, press G.
