Online Help Messages
The SLS Configuration Support Software (CSS) provides
both a general help message and numerous
“context-specific” help messages to assist you in
performing the various setup, configuration, and
operational tasks within the software.
Chapter 4, User Interface: Getting Around, introduced you
to the online help message concept. Here are the two
methods of accessing help messages:
l Selecting the Help option in the Main Menu to access a
help message that pertains generally to the hardware and
to CSS procedures.
l Pressing the Fl key anywhere withii the CSS to access a
“context-specific” help message; that is, one that
pertains specifically to the current menu, screen, or data
entry field.
In addition, once a help message appears on the screen, you
can use the Fl key to search for a particular character string
within the help message.
The following sections describe these help messages.
Help Option: General
Help Message
When you select the Help option in the Main Menu, a
lengthy help message appears that provides general
information about the required hardware configuration and
the basic procedures for using the keyboard keys, the
mouse, the help messages themselves, and about
configuring and operating the CSS.
You should acquaint yourself with the contents of this help
message if you have questions about any of the subjects
mentioned above.
