1. Menu Title is the top line of the menu window that displays the title of the
menu or submenu.
2. Menu List is the portion of the menu window that displays the list of menu
options. When selected, a menu option displays a submenu window or screen.
3. Letter Navigation Keys are provided within a menu list. These keys provide a
convenient way (shortcut) to select a menu item.
For example, from the Hotwire – DSL menu illustrated above, you can simply
press the A key to select the Configuration menu item. The Configuration
menu appears. You can then press the A key to select the Card Status menu
item. This action displays the Card Status menu. (You can also use the arrow
keys on your keyboard to select a menu item. See
Keys on page 2-4 for more information.)
