4.6 Entry of numbers and letters
You can use the keyboard to enter numbers and letters in input dialogs.
Numeric entry
● The number of underscores corresponds to the number of possible positions
for the entry.
● The overwrite mode is set by default; there is no insert mode.
● Horizontal navigation within the input field is possible with the keys <◄> and
<►>.
● Use <▲> to delete the character to the left of the cursor position.
● Use <ok> to save the entered value and exit the input field.
– When there are several input fields in the window, the cursor jumps to the
next field by pressing <ok>.
– If the cursor position is in the last or only input field, close the input dialog
by pressing <ok>.
● Use <C> to cancel the input and close the dialog without saving.
Alphanumeric entry
● Alphanumeric entries are only possible in particular input fields, e.g. for
customer text.
● Letters are entered in the same way as letters on telephones. You can select
the corresponding letter by pressing a key several times.
● Switching between lower and upper case letters is possible with the key <*>
and only applies for the next character.
In input fields with more than one line, you cannot change back to a line above
the cursor position.
