Command buttons and wide keys

The command buttons and wide keys are primarily used to support measurement and setup activities.

The command wide keys are duplicates of the Enter and Finish functions which are the most frequently

used command buttons, and can be located and pressed easily by the operator without looking at the front

panel.

• Enter Enters a point (or points) into a measurement, or enters a value into a measurement

data field, tolerance data field, communication data field or a setup data field

• Finish Completes a measurement, tolerancing or setup session

• Cancel Removes the last point from a measurement, deletes a feature from the feature list,

or removes the last character from a data or text field

• Quit Cancels a measurement in progress, ends a setup session without saving new settings

or ends a programming session

NOTE

Details regarding the use of the command keys are provided in Chapter 6: Measuring,

and are distributed throughout the remainder of this user guide.
