•
NEXT also allows you to advance to the next screen of information when you have
completed entry of all fields on the current screen; such as when moving from the Violation
screen to the Vehicle screen.
• You can also use the letters on the keypad to navigate to a particular menu. For example,
pressing the key with the letter “ P ” on the keypad is a shortcut to Parking Issue New menu.
•
ENTER
is used to display the submenu options under an option on the main menu; for
example, to move the focus from the menu item P=Parking to PARKING Issue New .
•
Pressing ENTER when in a field that has an associated drop-down list will display the
contents of the list, allowing you to select an individual value to populate the field.
•
UP ARROW and DOW N ARROW keys can be used to position the cursor on the desired
value within a particular menu or drop-down list.
•
Right ARROW and LEFT ARROW keys can be used to move from character to character
within a given field’s value, which is helpful when you need to manually revise a displayed
value, such as when entering NOTES or REMARKS.
Note: When entering values for fields with validation lists, the software provides a feature called
Anticipation .
For example, when an Officer enters “F” as the first character of vehicle type, the system presents
the first value in the list that begins with “F” (e.g. FIAT). If this is the correct value, the Officer may
use the Next key to move to the next field or screen. If this is not the correct value, the operator may
enter “O” and the first entry with “FO” will be presented. (E.g. FORD).
