Up and Down Arrows
For 6400, 5055, 11XX, the up and down arrow keys are defined by the
host computer.
For 59XX, the up and down arrow keys can be made to function more effi-
ciently, in many cases, by pressing the FUNC or ALT key, then pressing
the desired arrow key.
Use these keys to:
S Adjust the length and frequency of the audible buzzer, key click, and
error tone.
S Set the display screen size (the number of rows displayed and characters
per row) and contrast.
Number Keys [0] through [9]
Many menus have numbered options. Press the corresponding numeric
key to make a selection.
Note: For the 700 Series, CK31, CV60 Terminals, you may tap an option
to make a selection.
Once you make a selection and you remain at that menu screen, the op-
tion is highlighted, but you can select additional options. To deselect an
enabled option, press the number corresponding to that option.
Pressing a number may bring up a submenu. Use the submenu to further
modify the choice you made in the parent menu. After the modifications,
you may return to the parent menu to make additional selections. (This
depends on the menu and function.) Also, you may press a numeric key to
exit a menu or cold start the terminal. These situations are covered later in
this chapter.
Various menus require entering a number, but do not necessarily have
simplechoicessuchas1,2,3,4,etc.Instead,youmayhavetoentera
number from a range of numbers, such as 0–32.
These instances are detailed in the text that applies to those menus, or in
the menu displays.
Note: There are situations where pressing [6] does cause the terminal to
exit from a submenu or to reboot.
