Navigating Screens
These units use touch screen technology. Other than the power button, all interaction is handled with the
touch screen. To select a menu or an option, simply press the corresponding item on screen. Common
navigation or entry buttons are listed here. Buttons specific to functions or tasks are described in their
related task guide.
Confirm: To confirm an entry, press the green check mark onscreen. The
current data will be saved and the current screen will close.
Exit: To exit a menu or screen, press the "x" button. The "x" may be red or white.
Go Back: Sometimes exit or confirm are not available and you must press the go
back button onscreen to return to previous menus or screens.
Scroll Left/Right*: To scroll across screens press the left or right arrows
onscreen, when applicable.
Scroll Up/Down*: To scroll up or down a menu or list, press the up or down
arrows onscreen, when applicable.
Access Text Entry: This button will bring up a text entry screen, when available.
*Touching and dragging the screen also works to scroll, but the unit may register a touch as an item selection and activate the
touched item instead of scrolling.
Text Entry: Entering text is done with onscreen key entries. Any letter,
number, or symbol you select will overwrite the character currently highlighted
by the text cursor. If you scroll to the right using the arrow buttons, additional
choices for entry will be available including numbers and special characters.
Backspace: Backspace is available when entering text.
