3.5.4 Editing Values

To change a displayed value, point to its name using the
then press ENTER. Not all values are editable. If a cursor does not appear over the
value when the ENTER key is pressed, then the value cannot be changed. If a cursor
appears over the first character only, the value is either numeric, alphanumeric, or a
cartridge location. If the cursor appears over the entire value, it is a multiple-choice
value.
3.5.4.1
Editing Multiple-Choice Values
If the item contains a multiple-choice value, the entire value will be overlaid with
flashing block cursors. Use the
(DOWN) key to select the previous value, then press EXIT when done. The list of
choices wraps around, so the operator can see all the choices by using just the
or
(DOWN) key.
3.5.4.2
Editing non-Multiple-Choice Values
If only the first character of the value is highlighted with a flashing block cursor after
pressing the ENTER key, the value is either numeric, alphanumeric, or a cartridge
location. These values may be edited one character at a time using the ENTER key to
select the character to be edited, and then using the
change the character's value.
The cursor wraps around from the last to the first character. Also, the ENTER,
(DOWN) keys automatically repeat when held down.
3.5.4.3
Editing Numeric Values
Numeric values may be edited one digit at a time, or the entire value may be
changed, by simply incrementing or decrementing the least significant digit (or any
intermediate digit). When incrementing the digit 9, it goes to 0 and a carry is added to
the more significant digits. The opposite effect is true for decrementing. This process
will automatically stop at the upper and lower limits of the valid range for each item.
