Keypad Keys
These are the twelve square keys which support numeric entry.
The keyboard keys are labelled 0-9, plus/minus (+/-), and decimal point (.) and are
located near the center of the display face.
+/-
This key is used to change the sign of a numeric entry, enter a dash in ID
entry, and insert when editing lists. This key also initiates numeric entry,
except in display mode where it serves to toggle between tension and
compression for bidirectional cells. Toggling between tension and compres-
sion resets peak, first peak and break detect; unfreezes the force display; and
halts data capture.

menus. These keys are labeled ESCAPE (up), ENTER (down),
