NUMERIC KEYS
Numeric Keys
NUMERIC KEYS: The numeric keys give the user the ability to enter numbers (1-9) and a few special
characters into the control.
MINUS KEY The minus sign (

into a program.
DECIMAL KEY The decimal (

CANCEL Pressing CANCEL will backspace to delete the last characters entered in the input buffer.
It will also cancel out of any advanced editor pull down menu. It can also be used to
cancel out of any block that is highlighted, when doing a block edit.
SPACE KEY Pressing the SPACE key will enter in spaces, when your typing in characters in the input
buffer. It is not necessary to type in a SPACE in between program commands on a line,
since the control will do this for you when your entering in command lines into a program.
Though you will need to enter in spaces, where you would like to have them, on text that’s
entered in between parenthesis.
WRITE / ENTER Pressing WRITE/ENTER acts as a general purpose enter key. Any time the User needs to
add or change any information in the control, this key is pressed. It is also used to accept
menu items selected in the advanced editor or Quick Code.
