Entering Alphanumeric Strings
An alphanumeric string refers to a series of ASCII characters, (either numbers, letters or symbols), that
the meter uses to identify a specific site setup or user-modified table. The 1010GCN keypad does not
provide letter keys. However, when you access a menu cell that requires an alphanumeric string answer,
the menu cell right-hand column provides an eight-character entry field.
Press the <Right Arrow> to access the alphanumeric entry field and to select the first character position.
Note that the prompt changes to a question mark (?). With the cursor at the first character position, use
the <Up or Down Arrows> to scroll through a single-character ASCII list. For example, as shown below,
an <Up Arrow> at the first character position produces the letter: upper-case [A]. The <Right Arrow>
moves the cursor to the second position.
Entering Numeric Data
When a menu cell requires a numeric answer, press the <Right Arrow> to access a number entry field.
An equal sign (=) appears before current entry. For example, in the following Gas Parameters menu
screen the [Base Pres. PSIA] menu cell shows: [=14.700]. You can now use the number keys and the
decimal point key to type a new value. If applicable, you can use <+/-> keys to change the mathematical
sign of the number. Press <ENT> to store the numeric data.
NOTE: All Numeric Data cells provide a four-function calculator via the keypad’s arithmetic func-
tion keys.
