Introduction
2 - 15
LCD monitor
The monitor is a high-contrast gray-scale graphical LCD display with a resolution
of 320x240 pixels.
Accelerator keys
Let you add the test card of your choice, for example, Quick, CT, VT... etc. (refer
to ”Accelerator Keys” on page 22 of this chapter).
View Selector
Lets you select the view of your choice, for example, Test Card View, Test
Procedure Overview, File Operations or Options (refer to ”View Selector” on
page 21 of this chapter).
Jog-dial handwheel
Advanced jog-dial handwheel with "click" (E
N T E R
) function.
In "navigation" mode, turning the handwheel navigates you through the UI
(
⇒
Glossary) elements within one test card. Pressing the U
P
/ D
O W N
keys has
the same effect.
In "data entry" mode, that is, if the focus (
⇒
Glossary) is set onto a data entry
field or a combo box, and the handwheel was pressed to "enter" the field and to
enable data entry, turning the handwheel increases/decreases the entry field’s
value or browses through the preset values of the combo box, respectively.
Pressing the handwheel corresponds to the E
N T E R
function of the soft-touch
keyboard.
Furthermore, the wheel comprises an adaptive acceleration function, that is, if
the focus is, for example, set onto a data entry field, fast turning increments/
decrements a value in increasingly bigger steps, slow turning in decreasingly
smaller steps.
U
P
/ D
O W N
keys
Soft-touch keys supplementing the handwheel. Depending on the current focus
in the software user interface, pressing these keys either navigates through the
UI elements within one test card, or - if in a data entry field, for example -
increments/decrements a value.
Contrary to the handwheel, the U
P
/ D
O W N
keys change a value in fixed coarse
increments /decrements in order to ease a quick approximation to the end
value. The fine adjustment is then done with the handwheel.
