The hidden OTHER button
To switch over the content of entire areas of the screen, e.g. the area containing the Multidisplay or the
radar target data, the OTHER button is used; this button is not continuously visible.
The OTHER button appears in miniaturised form in the top left-hand corner of the display as soon as the
cursor is situated in the relevant display. It appears in normal form as soon as the cursor is situated in
the area of the normal display of the OTHER button. By clicking of this button, a context menu with the
possible display-settings opens up.
Input of Numerical Values
In some areas, numerical values can be entered. This is done with the aid of a virtual keyboard which
appears on the screen as soon as clicking is performed on an area of this kind. With the MORE key, the
input can be aborted without any change occurring.
It is possible to choose between the input of a new value and the changing of the existing value. An
exception to this rule is the input of geographical coordinates, for which different algorithms are appli-
cable.
Entering of a New Value
1. Click on the numerical area; a virtual input-keyboard is
opened.
2. Click numerals one after another. They appear in the display
area of the keyboard.
☞ Before the decimal places, click on the point button,
unless the point is entered automatically.
☞ Signs, e.g. for the time zone, can be entered by means
of the button .
☞ With the button , the character situated on the right in the display area can be deleted.
3. By clicking on the OK button, the value displayed is taken over and the keyboard disappears.
Changing of an Existing Value
1. Click on the numerical area; a virtual input-keyboard is
opened.
2. With the first pressing of the or button, the value
which exists at that time appears in the display area of the
keyboard.
As long as the button of the virtual keyboard is kept
pressed (with the DO key), the existing value increases. As
long as the button is kept pressed, it decreases.
3. By means of the OK button, the keyboard is made to disappear and the value entered is taken over.
