buttons or switches on the equipment.
Italicized-Bold
Text
Indicates software terms that identify menu items, buttons or options in
various windows.
CTRL+ESC
Indicates a keyboard operation. A plus (+) sign between the names of two
keys indicates that while holding the first key, you should press and release
the second key. For example, Press
CTRL+ESC means to press and hold the
CTRL key and then press and release the ESC key.
<space>
Indicates that you must press the spacebar. When instructions are given
for typing a precise text string with one or more spaces, the point where
you must press the spacebar is indicated as
<space> . This ensures that
the correct number of spaces is inserted in the correct positions within
the literal text string. The purpose of the < > brackets is to distinguish the
command from the literal text within the string.
Enter
Indicates that you must press the Enter or Return key on the keyboard. Do
not type Enter .
>
The greater than symbol, or right angle bracket, is a concise method to
indicate a sequence of menu selections.
For example, the statement “From the main menu, select System > Setup >
Options to open the Option Activation window” replaces the following:
1. From the main menu, select System to open the System menu.
2. From the System menu, select Setup to open the Setup menu.
3. From the Setup menu, select Options to open the Option Activation
window.
