The arrow keys are used to move around the screen, selecting the line item for
change. The +, -, Ctrl +, Ctrl -, and Ctrl+E keys are used to change the value of the
selected item. When entering characters for a text entry (blue boxes), the last
character typed may be deleted using the Backspace key. In addition, text entry one
can use standard Windows® edit features. This allows text to be selected Shift + Left
Arrow key (◄) or Shift + Right Arrow key (►), Cut (Ctrl+X), Copy (Ctrl+C) or
Paste (Ctrl+V).
The following keys are common to most all test screens and are described here for
convenient reference:
F6 = Set Factory Default: Loads the Default setting for the selected line item
only.
Ctrl+F6 = Set All Factory Defaults: Resets all values on the screen currently
displayed to Factory Default values.
Ctrl+F7 = Recall Previous Settings: Undoes any changes made since opening
the current screen.
▲, ◄, ►, ▼, Enter = Select Item: The arrow keys are used to move the
highlight box horizontally or vertically to select a particular line for editing. The
▼ arrow or Enter key accepts the current value and moves to the next line item.
TAB = Select Item: This key has the same effect as the right arrow key when
moving from one setting to another. Also, the Shift+TAB key have the same
effect as the Left Arrow key (◄). This is most useful when leaving a (blue) edit
setting that uses the left and right arrow keys internally (◄,►). Here also, the
Enter key accepts the current value and moves to the next line item.
+, - = Change Value: These keys are used to change the value of the selected line
item either by toggling through the available options (for example, “YES” or
“NO”) or by increasing/decreasing a numerical value.
Ctrl +, Ctrl - = Fast Change: Pressing these key combinations allows for a rapid
change of the value of the selected line item.
Ctrl+E = Edit: Allows direct entry of a numerical value for selected item when
the input range is large.
PgDn, PgUp, (Ctrl +) Home and (Ctrl +) End: Select a different detection zone
on screens dealing with individual zones. The Home/ Ctrl + Home keys select
Zone #1/ first zone in the group while End/Ctrl+End select the last zone in the
group/last zone. On other screens, PgDn and PgUp are used to scroll through a
list of data that exceeds the number of lines on the screen. They are also used on
alternative screens, for example, to “Change…” a “…Source” or source “…Jig”,
to “Change…” a “…Voice” or to “Change…” a “…Current Weight”.
Esc = Return to Previous Menu: Pressing the Esc key saves the current values
and displays the previous menu. If any change was made on the screen, the event
is recorded in the Service Data Log, if enabled.
