Entering a point name or number
You can use numeric or alphanumeric names up to 20 characters long to identify
points.
The default name for a new point is the last point name entered, with the last digit
incremented. For example, if the last point name was A100, the default name for the
next point is A101.
If the last character of the previous point name is alphabetic, the default point name is
identical to the last point name.
When the cursor is in a PT (point) field, there are several ways to specify a point, or to
enter coordinates. You can:
• Enter an existing point, see page 51
• Enter a new point, see page 51
