2. Using the Control Panel
Button Use
Page Scroll Buttons
There are two buttons located to the right of the display area. Next to each button is a printed arrow,
pointing either up or down, as shown in Figure 2-7.
Because the display area only shows eight lines at a time, if the current selected mode features
more than eight items, the information displays on additional pages (see
Display Area on page 7).
Press
Page Up
to scroll up to a previous page and
Page Down
to scroll down to the next page. Scroll
buttons do not become active (remain unlit) until there is a need to scroll up or down. For example,
if there are only six lines to view, the
Page Up
and
Page Down
buttons remain unlit.
These buttons are dedicated and cannot be assigned a different function by the configurer.

Category and Keypad Buttons
When facing the front of the control panel, there is a set of 20 buttons located in the right-hand area
of the panel, as shown in Figure 2-8. Ten of the buttons are numbered (0 through 9). These buttons
can be used as a standard keypad for numeric data entry. These buttons are also typically used for
selecting categories. The buttons usually have both a number and a category abbreviation.
The remaining buttons can also be configured as category buttons, but typically the eight buttons to
the right of the ten keypad buttons are assigned additional functions. For a description of possible
button functions, see
Button Legends and Functions on page 14.
Category buttons are available in X-Y or MD mode. Category buttons are used as the first step in
selecting a source or destination device. The category a button selects may be different if in source
selection mode or destination selection mode. For more information about categories in general,
see
About Categories on page 6.
Numeric Entry
When using the ten keypad buttons for numeric data entry, entries appear in Column 1 in the dis-
play area. If entering a PIN number, asterisks display to ensure privacy.The display is limited to
eight digits.
