Screen Selectors

Publication 2711E-820 – January 1998

A Screen Select Keypad is a numeric keypad that enables the
operator to choose the next screen to be displayed by entering its
number.

Tip: Configure a Goto Screen button labeled “Select New Screen”
to go to a screen displaying a Screen Select Keypad. The operator
can then select the desired screen by entering the screen number.

Screen Select Keypads come in two sizes: the large keypad is
384 pixels wide, while the small keypad is 192 pixels wide. Both
keypads are 480 pixels high, and both operate in the same way.

The following table lists and explains the object’s components.
