2.4.2. USING THE KEYBOARD
To provide keyboard information, the RSS documentation uses some special conventions:
• The keys on your keyboard may not be labeled exactly as they appear in this manual.
For example the Control key is shown as CTRL, and the Escape key is shown as ESC.
• Keys are often used in combinations or sequences. For example, SHIFT+F1 means to
hold down the SHIFT key while pressing the F1 key, and ALT, F, A means to press and
release each of these keys in order: first ALT, then F, and then A.
• Arrow keys is the collective name for the UP ARROW, DOWN ARROW, LEFT
ARROW and RIGHT ARROW keys.
2.4.3. RSS MENUS AND COMMANDS
Choosing a command tells the RSS what to do next: to load parameters from the radio, to
program radio parameters, and so on. Commands that carry out similar actions are grouped
on a menu. For example, the File menu contains commands you use to load, save and print
the radio parameters. The menus are listed on the menu bar at the top of the RSS window.
You can use the mouse or the keyboard to display the commands on each menu. To open
the menus and browse through the commands, drag across the menu bar with the mouse, or
press the ALT key, and then press the underlined letter in the name of the menu you want
to open.
The RSS carries out some commands right away. If more information is needed to
complete a command, the RSS displays a dialog box. You select options in the dialog box
to control how the command is carried out.
