Softkey Function Keys
37-Key Keyboard Function Keys
The 37-key keyboard is equipped with twenty function keys. Function keys <F1> to
<F4> are located across the top of the keyboard and function keys <F5> to <F10>
are located at the bottom of the keyboard.
Additional function keys – <F11> to <F20> – are colour coded in orange print
above function keys <F1> to <F10>.
To access function keys <F11> to <F20>:
• Press the <ORANGE> key followed by the appropriate function key.
For example:
To access function key <F11>, press the <ORANGE> key followed
by <F1>.
To access function key <F12>, press <ORANGE> followed by <F2>,
and so on.
6.2.1.3 Softkey Function Keys
To speed the process of moving through menus and changing parameters, function
keys <F1> to <F5> have been programmed to perform specific actions in the
Tekterm menus. Table 6.1 "Softkeys" describes these function keys.
These softkeys can be reprogrammed to perform different functions within TESS
and ANSI applications.
Important: If your hand-held is equipped with a touchscreen, tapping the
stylus on the appropriate softkey label executes the function of the
softkey providing that the labels are visible at the bottom of the
screen. See “Softkeys” on page 256 if they are not visible.
