This button allows the operator to choose the next screen to be
displayed by entering the screen number on the terminal’s numeric
keypad.

At runtime, when the button is pressed, a scratchpad appears on the
top 60 pixels of the screen. The operator enters the screen number in
the scratchpad using the terminal’s numeric keypad.

The keys on the numeric keypad function as follows:

scratchpad.

Cancel

Note: Operator input is disabled for a short time when the
scratchpad is first displayed. This may result in a delay before the
first digit can be entered.
