Accessing TE Commands on the Keypad
As on all terminal keyboards, the keys on the JANUS 2050 TE keypad have
their main function marked directly on the key itself. To access that character
or function, just press the key. Your JANUS 2050 TE provides access to
additional keys and commands. These keys are described below.
Note: When entering a key combination on the JANUS 2050, you do not need to press
and hold the
c
,
a
,
u
, or
f
keys. Once you press a key, the JANUS 2050 stores
the keystroke in memory and uses it with the next keystroke as a key combination.
Shift Key
The
u
key accesses uppercase letters. For example, for the letter “A” you
press
u A
. This key also accesses the mathematical symbols printed on the
number keys.
Ctrl and Alt Keys
The
c
and
a
keys let you access characters or commands on the keypad that
are printed above the letter keys and function keys. The
c
key has the color
green above it and activates the commands printed in green. Similarly, the
a
key activates commands printed in blue.
To use the
c
and
a
keys, simply press and release the key, and then press
the corresponding key that has the desired command or character printed
above it. For example, to create an equal sign (=), press
c
and then press
I
.
Note: When you exit TE and return to the DOS prompt, the
c
key will no longer be
accessing the characters printed above the letter keys. Use the
f
key instead.
Compound Function Key
On a regular JANUS 2050 keypad, the
f
key can be pressed multiple times to
access even more sets of commands. You can press the
f
key up to three
times to access different sets of commands. These commands are not available
when you are using terminal emulation software.
