VX 520 REFERENCE GUIDE 35
CHAPTER 3
Using the Terminal Keys
Before proceeding to other tasks, familiarize yourself with the operational features
of the VX 520 terminal keypad to enter data.
This section describes how to use the keypad, which consists of a 12-key Telco-
style keypad, three color-coded keys below the keypad, the ALPHA key above the
keypad, four ATM-style function keys (F1, F2, F3, and F4) to the right of the
display (Figure 23), and four programmable function (PF) keys directly above the
keypad. Using these keys you can perform all data-entry tasks described in this
manual.
The function keys allow you to navigate though the terminal manager menus and
select specific operations.
For added convenience, the keypad is automatically back-lit when you power on
the terminal. The backlight may be turned off at any time.

The PF and ATM-style keys can also be assigned application-specific functions
in addition to those assigned to terminal manager operations. These functions
are not discussed in this manual.
