As the manufacturing process of the CPA has evolved, there have been two keypad layouts. As
shown in Figure 5-2:

The function of the keypad is as follows:
ENTER
(ENT)
Use this key to select a displayed function or to execute a modem configuration change. From the
opening screen, pressing ENTER once takes you to the SELECT: (Main) menu.
CLEAR
(CLR)
Use this key to back out of a s election or to cancel a c onfiguration change which has not been
executed using ENTER.
Pressing CLEAR generally returns the display to the previous selection or, if pressed repeatedly,
to the opening screen.
From the opening screen, pressing CLEAR once takes you to the SELECT: (Main) menu.

The current production unit’s keypad has an auto-repeat feature. Holding a key
down for more than 1 second repeats the key action automatically at the rate of
15 keystrokes per second. This is useful particularly when editing numeric fields
with many digits, such as frequency or data rate.
