2-16 N_SIGHT R900 User’s Manual for the Neptune Handheld System
The procedures in this manual will instruct you to follow one or the
other method. Use the method most comfortable for you.
Data-Entry Screens
Typically, data-entry screens prompt you to enter information.
Whenever a data-entry screen is displayed, the handheld automatically
disables inappropriate keys. For example, when prompted to enter a
meter reading, it allows you to enter numbers only. However, if you are
prompted to enter a new trouble code, it enables the letter and number
keys because codes can use letters and numbers.
On each of the reading-entry screens the
meter reader can tell the
position
of the meter within the route. See Figure 2.8 on Page 2-16.
