The Display Screen

User’s Guide 13

Press the

<Alpha> key to enter alpha mode. A caret (^) appears at the

cursor position in the display screen. The portable remains in alpha

mode until a function key is pressed, or until the

<Alpha> key is pressed

again.

<BKSP>: This is the backspace key. Press it to move the cursor one

place to the left and delete the character there.

<ENTER>: Press this key to enter the current data string and move to

the next programming command.

The Display Screen

The portable’s display screen can show 4 lines of text with up to 16

characters on each line. However, the unit can actually hold up to 24

lines of data with up to 80 characters on a line. Scroll the display to view

data that doesn’t currently appear.

The Virtual Display

The portable’s display screen is like a window to a larger display area,

called the

virtual display (refer to Figure 2-3 on page 14). Data longer

than 16 characters is placed in the virtual display while entering or

reading information. Information automatically carries over (or “wraps”)

to the next line if there are more than 80 characters in a line.
