<DEL> Key Behaviour In TESS
6.6.5.2 <DEL> Key Behaviour In TESS
Field mode
• In a left justified field, the <DEL> key erases all characters in the
field and places the cursor in the left most position of that field.
• In a right justified field, the <DEL> key erases all characters in the
field and places the cursor in the right most position of that field.
• If the <DEL> key is used to clear data in a field that has been
pre-filled by the host application, the field is flagged as modified
and the updated information is sent to the host in the next response
message.
Replace mode
• In both left and right justified fields, the <DEL> key erases charac-
ters beginning from the current cursor position to the end of the
field. The cursor remains in the same position in the field.
• If the <DEL> key is pressed while cursor is in the right most
position in the field, the 7535/7530 emits a keyboard error beep.
• If the <DEL> key is used to clear data in a field that has been
pre-filled by the host application, the field is flagged as modified
and the updated information is sent to the host in the next response
message.
Insert mode
• In both left and right justified fields, the <DEL> key erases the char-
acters from one character position to right of the cursor to
the end of the field.
• If the <DEL> key is pressed while the cursor is in the right most
position in the field, the 7535/7530 emits a keyboard error beep.
• If the <DEL> key is used to clear data in a field that has been
pre-filled by the host application, the field is flagged as modified
and the updated information is sent to the host in the next response
message.
Fcursor mode
•Refer to “Field Mode” at the beginning of this table. The <DEL> key
operates in the same manner in “Fcursor mode” as it does in “Field
mode”.
