Selecting a New Channel
Channels may be selected by four different methods. Once the correct
identifier is shown on-screen as the "New" channel, pressing the ENTER key
on the numeric keypad will select that channel as the current channel.
Rotary
Turning the right-hand rotary control that is above the on-screen "CH #"
legend will cause the "New" selection to scroll through the list of channels
that the RCP may connect to. When the rotary control is tuned anti-clockwise
the channels are scrolled backwards through the list and when turned
clockwise they scroll forwards.
Up and Down
Pressing the right-hand soft-keys positioned beneath the "Up" and "Down"
on-screen legends causes the "New" selection to move correspondingly
through the list of available connections.
History
Pressing the left-hand soft-key positioned beneath the "History" on-screen
legend causes the "New" selection to step through that last ten connections
made by the user, excluding duplicates of the current position.
Numeric Keypad
The numeric keypad may be used to enter the required channel number. The
channel number is allocated to a channel at system installation. Channel
numbers may be in the range from 0 to 999 inclusive although it is common
for simple channel numbers such as 1 to 16 to be used. As each numeric key
is pressed the number appears directly in the "New" line and, when the
correct number has been typed, ENTER is pressed to apply the selection.
When the ENTER key is pressed the system will check to see that the channel
number pressed is valid and if so the full textual name and channel number
are displayed, and if not, the "New" selection reverts to its previous value. At
any point when entering a channel number the process may be exited by
pressing the ESC key.
