• If DEFINE is chosen, pressing PF8-Forw will advance the display to panels which
allow you to define the selected translate tables. If the selected translate table(s) is

keyboard type.
• If UNDEFINED is chosen, pressing PF8-Forw will default the selected translate table,
erasing any previous modifications which have been made using the ADU. Upon IML,
the specified translate table assume default values based upon the Configuration language.
