Key String Definition

The second line of each f-key definition contains the character string that is to be
displayed, executed, and/or transmitted to the host when the key or button is pressed.
The string may contain alphanumeric characters, control characters, and explicit
escape sequence characters entered when Display Functions mode is enabled by
pressing F7 or the Display Functns button.
The default f-key string begins with the characters EC which represent the escape
code that is used to begin each escape sequence. The EC characters are displayed in
the key definition line by pressing the Esc key or the keys Ctrl + [ together when
Display Functions mode is enabled. Note that you must enter the entire escape
sequence before disabling Display Functions mode (by pressing F7 again).
When Display Functions is enabled, the Return key may be used to insert carriage
return codes (CR) in the string. If Auto LF mode is selected in the Mode Selection
function menu, Return will generate a line feed (LF) code as well as carriage return.
To change an f-key/button string definition, use the Tab or Shift + Tab keys to move
the cursor onto the second line (the line following LABEL definition for that key/
button) and type in the new definition which can consist of a maximum of 80
characters.
When you have finished defining f-key/button strings, press the F9 key to exit the
menu. To enable the new definitions and display the relevant functions on the
buttons, press the F10 key.
Note: The host may reset the f-key definitions to their default
values if required by the application.
