1.1.3 Software Keys
The software keys (soft keys) have different functions according to the modes of operation: their
labels for the current functions, located on the front panel, are shown on the screen right above
the keys. Also they are used from the chart screen or from the data pages to select one of the
data pages available to allow faster access to the page selection.
When the chart page is selected, the soft key labels are not shown. By pressing one of the soft
keys their labels for the current functions are shown on the screen immediately above the soft
keys. When the soft key labels are shown, by pressing the associated soft key the relative func-
tion is executed. By pressing [CLEAR] the soft key labels disappear.
1.1.4 Function Keys
When the cursor is placed over any User Point or any cartographic object, a window containing
the information about the selected object is shown on a variable location of the screen (not
covering the cursor icon). At the same time some Function Keys (up to five) are shown on the
bottom of the page. The Function Keys are associated to the function that can be applied to the
selected object. Each Function Key shows a number and the name of the function.
For example when the cursor is placed over a Mark, the information window with Coordinates,
Name, Icon and all other Mark information is shown. The following Functions Keys are shown
on the bottom of the map display.
Pressing any numerical keys from [1] to [5], the function associated to the selected number is
executed. Otherwise pressing any numerical key not active (not associated to any function) 3
beeps will be sounded and the Function Keys are kept shown. Pressing [CLEAR] the Functions
Keys are removed from the screen, pressing any other key the Functions Keys will be closed
and the function associated to the pressed key will be executed.
