Operation
Entering Picklist Values
Note
The fine adjust knob is velocity-sensitive, meaning that the faster the
knob is turned, the more coarse the adjustment. Slow manipulation
of the knob will yield very fine resolution even beyond that displayed
by the Model 430 Programmer.
When the desired numeric value has been set using the fine adjust knob,
the
ENTER
key is pressed to store the value. Pressing the
ESC
key while
the fine adjust knob is live will cause the adjusted value to revert to its
previous setting and make the fine adjust knob inactive. In fact, pressing
any key other than
ENTER
will cause the adjusted value to revert to its
previous setting and make the fine adjust knob inactive.

Entering Picklist Values
Some submenu items require the user to select a value from a list of
predefined values (picklist values). Such menus will display an item
selector ( ) which points to the picklist value currently selected. To
change the value to another value in the picklist, first press the
ENTER
key; the display will show an asterisk (*) indicating that picklist entry is
active.
While picklist entry is active, the left and right keypad arrows (to the left
and right of the
MENU
key) move the item selector between the different
picklist values. Pressing the left keypad arrow moves the item selector one
picklist value to the left and pressing the right keypad arrow moves the
item selector one picklist value to the right. When the last picklist value is
reached, and the right keypad arrow is pressed, the item selector will move
to the first picklist value. Likewise, when the item selector is pointing to
the first picklist value, and the left keypad arrow is pressed, the item
Figure 3-3.
