The Virtual Keyboard
The Virtual Keyboard is an alphanumeric keyboard which appears on the
LCD Touch Screen Display. You can use the Virtual Keyboard either with
the four-way touch pad and control panel buttons, or using the touch screen
display directly.
At the top of the screen is the data field you are entering data into, in this
case"A1234567890A". Also in this field is the underscore cursor, which
graphically shows where the next character will be placed. Up to 25
characters can be stored in the data fields, though only the first 15 will be
displayed on the analyzer's touch screen.
Next is the Virtual Keyboard itself, with numbers 0-9, letters A-Z, the
special characters *,<,>, and -, and the Shift key, to toggle between upper
and lower case keyboards.
Last is the control key line. This contains the keys for Return, Space, Clr,
and Backspace. The Return key will enter the data and return you to the
Data Entry Screen, the Backspace key will delete the last entered character,
the Space key will insert a space at the cursor position, and the Clr screen
button will clear the data you have entered.
Since the Virtual Keyboard is oriented 90 degrees from the standard in
order to use a landscape display, the down portion of the 4-way touch-pad
will select the key to the right of the current position, the left portion will
select the key immediately below, the up portion will select the key to the
left, and the right portion will select the key will select the key immediately
above, Use the Select and Enter button to enter the currently selected key.
All screen areas can be directly accessed using the LCD Touch Screen by
touch.
