The Standard Keys
<ALT> Key
This key provides access to alternate commands as defined by the application you
are using.
Note: On vehicle-mount terminals without a dedicated <ALT> key, the
<ORANGE> key is used to access this function.
The <ESC> Key
While in the “Parameters” menu, pressing the <ESC> key closes the current menu
and displays the previous one. In an ANSI session, pressing this key sends an escape
character to the host. In a TESS session, the <ESC> key has no effect.
Note: On vehicle-mount terminals without a dedicated <ESC> key, the
<ORANGE> key is used to access this function.
The <TAB> Key
In a TESS application, pressing the <TAB> key moves the cursor into the next field
to the right. In an ANSI application, pressing the <TAB> key transmits a “TAB”
character to the host.
Note: Vehicle-mount terminals are not equipped with a dedicated <TAB> key.
The <ORANGE> key is used to access this function.
The <SPACE> Key
Pressing this key inserts a blank space between characters.
The <SCAN> Key – 7035 Only
Pressing the <SCAN> key – the yellow key with the star-burst scan symbol on it –
activates the scanner beam. It is situated in the top-centre of the keyboard for easy
right- or left-handed access.
