FLIR identiFINDER R300 - Editing Text: First Character J Is Selected; Entering Text

FLIR Detection 2. Operating the FLIR identiFINDER R300
In case you change your mind, you can Cancel editing the value with R (Reveal the command
with
Skip if necessary). The value in effect before you started editing with Select will be reestab-
lished.
Pressing
I for a moment also cancels editing.
Do not press I for too long. That would power down your FLIR identiFINDER R300.
2.2.6 Entering Text
Several entries consist of arbitrary text, for example the operator’s name, phone numbers, or set-
tings for Bluetooth communication to a remote server (Figure 164, p. 149). Entering and editing
text with the FLIR identiFINDER R300’s limited number of keys is, of course, challenging. It is simi-
lar to editing composite values as described in 2.2.4, p. 40, with every character being a component.
Editing text is a lot more convenient via the FLIR identiFINDER R300’s web interface (see 8,
p. 179).
Several commands are available if you
Select (see 2.2.3, p. 37) text values for editing. These com-
mands are mapped to the
R key. Use Skip mapped to L to cycle through the available com-
mands (see 2.2.1, p. 35).
During text editing, exactly one character is selected (Figure 27, p. 43), that is, editing commands
are applied to this character.

Figure 27. Editing Text: First character “J” is selected.
To select another character, use Left or Right (Figure 28, p. 44).
If you reach the left end of the text,
Left does nothing. At the end of the text, however, Right
moves to two additional characters (spaces) to facilitate appending another word to the text.
