Buttons for working with menus and entering text 
Table 40 below describes the menu command buttons and the buttons on the alphanumeric 
keyboard. 
Use the alphanumeric keypad to enter passwords, create text labels, and enter device and 
group numbers. Values appear on the LCD screen as you press the button. 
Note: You can use each number button to enter multiple values. For example, use the “2” 
button to enter either the number “2” or the letters “A,” “B,” “C,” or “a,” “b,” “c.” 
To enter text, numbers, or symbols: 
1.  Press the button once to enter the number, or press again to scroll through the alternate 
values. Wait for the cursor to move to the next position. 
2.  Enter the next number, character, or symbol. 
Note: To select an alternate case, continue to press the key until the letter shows in the 
desired case. The following letters appear in the same case. 
3.  When you have finished, press the Enter button.
