Exceptions to the above are mainly the result of input fields. Where these are present, the left/
right cursor keys move the input cursor rather than performing an OK/cancel function. The
Return key takes you to the next field (like the "down" key) rather than closing the entire dialog
with OK. There are also Backspace (deletes character to the left) and Delete (deletes character
to the right) keys for editing text and numbers. The F5, F6, Backspace, Delete, and Select keys
(between the cursor keys) can be used to switch between Yes/No fields.
Note
Special function for Touch Panels without additional keys
Letters and numbers in input fields can be edited with HSK5/HSK6, which switch one character
forward or backward. With a touch screen, you can activate all the softkeys and even select
rows in a menu simply by touching them.
For operator panel fronts without keys, a virtual keyboard automatically appears.
