SECTION 4 " RT1700 Radio Terminal
VT220/ANSI Terminal Emulation Programmer’s Reference Guide 4-17
If you try to move the cursor off the display in any direction,
the window shifts one or eight lines or columns in the direc-
tion of the cursor movement. This lets you move the view-
ing window around within the larger VT220 terminal
screen. The display does not wrap when the window reach-
es the top or side boundaries of the virtual VT220 screen. A
beep tone sounds when you try to move the window beyond
a top, bottom, left, or right boundary.
Use the arrow keys in combination with [GOLD] and
[BLACK] to move through the radio terminal’s display a
single space at a time (indicated by “S” on the overlay) or
eight spaces at a time (indicated by “W” on the overlay).
The following chart shows key movements.

Auxiliary Keypad
The VT220 terminal’s auxiliary keypad consists of numeric
keys (which enter numeric data) and programmable func-
tion (PF) keys. The PF keys have operations assigned to
them by the application software in use. Refer to your ap-
plication’s software manual for the programmed uses of the
PF keys.
