XL-4, XL-4B, and XL-5 LCD Keypad Programming Manual
FORWARD key will advance the cursor to the right by one position. If the display contains
multiple Yes/No questions then the forward key will move the cursor to the next slot on the
display. If the display contains text, then the forward key will advance to the next character.
BACKWARD [CODE KEY]
Similar to the forward key except that the cursor will be moved to the previous position.
NEXT LETTER [7 KEY]
The NEXT LETTER key is used only for text questions. Text questions request entry of
characters. This includes the letters A-Z, numbers 0-9, space character as well as the other
characters that would normally be seen on a typewriter or computer keyboard. Entry of text
information is accomplished through use of the next letter key. The cursor must be
positioned to the desired position and the next letter key will advance the display through
the character set one character at a time. When the desired character has been reached hit
the FORWARD key to advance the cursor to the next position. When all the desired entries
have been completed for the text field hit the NEXT QUESTION key.
In addition to the NEXT LETTER key advancing one character at a time, depression of the
SHIFT ( ) key followed by the NEXT LETTER ( 7 ) key will advance through the character
sequence more rapidly. When the desired character has been reached depress the NEXT
LETTER (7) key again to stop the display.
The character sequence includes the letters A - Z along with the following:
A - Z { | } space ! " # $ % & ` ( )
Alphabetic characters can be entered as lower case or upper case values.
ERASE FLD [8 KEY]
The ERASE FIELD function is performed by depressing the SHIFT key (labeled
operation) followed by the ERASE FIELD key (normally the 8 key). This will blank out the
entire field from the current cursor position to the end of the field and applies only to
numerical and text fields only.
NOTE: After the SHIFT key is depressed, the Arm light will be lit.
PREV LETTER [9 KEY]
The PREVIOUS LETTER is similar to the NEXT LETTER key, however scrolls backward
through the character set for text entry. The character sequence begins with the last letter
accessed by the system.
In addition to the PREVIOUS LETTER key advancing one character at a time, depression of
the SHIFT key followed by the 9 key will advance through the character sequence rapidly.
This will make one complete pass through the character set. When the desired character has
been reached depress the 9 key to stop the display.
TOGGLE [0 KEY]
The TOGGLE key is used for YES/NO questions and multiple-choice displays. The toggle key
will advance the second line of the display through the available choices for the question. For
example, in a YES/NO question the TOGGLE key will change the answer from YES to NO if
the initial value was YES. The second line of the LCD display shows the current value. The
toggle key advances the display through the available choices for the programming question.
After the last available choice has been reached, the display will return to the first choice.
When the desired choice has been obtained, the NEXT QUESTION key will finalize the entry
and advance to the next display.
