Function Key Descriptions

The Core Keypad
The core keypad is a 16-key arrangement which consists of a 12-key
Telco-style keypad and four color-coded function keys located to the
right of this keypad (see Figure 16).
Note: The System Mode functions described in the next section of
this manual require that you enter numbers, letters, or symbols using
the core keypad.
Using the core keypad, you can enter up to 50 ASCII characters,
including the letters A–Z, the numerals 0–9, and the following special
characters: * , ' " - . # : ! + @ = & and [space].
Note: The specific action that is performed when you press one of
the following function keys depends on the terminal operating mode
and context in which you press it. The following descriptions are
provided solely to acquaint you with some general characteristics of
these function keys before presenting more detailed System Mode
procedure descriptions.
[CLEAR]
In Normal Mode — when the terminal's application is loaded and
running — pressing the [CLEAR] key usually has the same effect as
pressing the Escape (Esc) key on a PC. That is, it terminates the
current function or operation.
In System Mode, you use the [CLEAR] key, alone and in key
combinations, to perform a variety of functions. The most common
use of the [CLEAR] key in System Mode is to exit from System
Mode and return to Normal Mode or to exit a System Mode function
and return to the System Prompt. The specific effect of pressing
[CLEAR] depends on which System Mode function you select.
