messages as they're displayed on the CRT.

Alphanumeric A set of characters consisting of either the letters A through Z, the digits

0 through 9, special symbols, or a combination of all of these. For

example: the set of characters "AB76#2", is alphanumeric.

information. This includes the digits 0 through 9, the letters A through

Z, punctuation marks, and other special symbols.

Command Processor

Programs The data programmed into a DMP command processor panel at the

time of installation. A typical program includes: communication infor-

mation, system options, area information, loop information, and the

number and type of Security Command keypads in the system.

This should not be confused with System Programs that are software

routines used by the SCS-1 to execute functions described in the

Operations Manual.

CRT A computer monitor used to display information and a computer

keyboard that allows you to enter information.

Cursor A flashing underline symbol on the CRT display for use when entering

or changing information.

Default Value A value assigned to a field by the SCS-1. The receiver assigns the

value to that field allowing the operator to accept its entry and respond

to the next field.

Del (Delete) A key located on the SCS-1 keyboard that clears the information

currently in the cursor location. The cursor then moves to the next field.

The use of this key varies between programs.

Entry Information typed into the SCS-1 through the keyboard attached to the

CRT. This information is entered into the system when the Return key

is pressed.

Field A single item of information on a CRT screen. For example: a field

within the System Configuration program would be the company

name. Another field in this selection would be the type specification for

line 2.

Menu A CRT display that lists the program selections available to the

operator.
