Using The Menus

Option Selection

There are several ways of selecting or actioning the various options displayed in the
menus.
The quickest way is to click the option required. Another way is to place the pointer
over the button on the first option, hold down the left mouse button then move the
pointer up or down the menu until the button rests over the option required then
release the left mouse button.
Options that are displayed dimmed are not applicable to the current mode of operation
and cannot be selected. An example of this is the Cancel Capture option in the File
menu. This can only be selected after a Capture File command has been initiated.
Options that are not followed by an ellipsis (...) perform a particular function when
selected. For example, selecting Factory Default in the File menu will cause
TeemTalk to assert the factory default settings.
Options that are followed by an ellipsis indicate that a dialog box will be displayed
with all the selections applicable to that option. For example, selecting Serial... in the
Settings menu will display a dialog box in which you can specify serial host commu-
nication settings.

Dialog Boxes

Selecting an option which is followed by an ellipsis (...) will cause a dialog box to be
displayed. The dialog box will remain on the display until the Ok or Cancel button at
the bottom of the dialog box is clicked.
Option Selection
There are several methods for making selections within the dialog boxes. Most options
have a small square or diamond button next to them. An option is selected or true
when the button is pressed in, and false or unselected when the button is popped out.
Buttons are toggled in and out by clicking the pointer on them.
Some options have all their applicable settings listed in a box with diamond buttons
next to them. In this case the buttons behave just like radio buttons in that clicking one
will cause the previously depressed button to pop out.
Some options require you to enter information in a text box. To do this, click the
pointer in the text box, delete the previous value then enter the new value from the
keyboard.
