Use of the function
keys
The function keys F1 to F4 are below the display. Their functions change
depending on the operating situation and mode. The current functions are
displayed in the function key menu at the bottom edge of the display.
Apart from navigation, the function keys are also used for other operations:
z Opening a selection list or input field
z Executing a command (directly or with intermediate query)
z Switch over between two display options,
such as absorbance
Q transmission
Navigation with
arrow keys
(<▲><▼>) and
<START·ENTER>
These operating elements are used to select an item from a menu or list. The
current selection is displayed in reverse video. Pressing of
<START·ENTER> confirms the selection.
Apart from navigation, the <START·ENTER> key is also used for other
operations:
z Opening a selection list or input field
z Confirming a selection
z Confirming entries of text and numerals
z Executing a command (directly or with intermediate query)
z Activating an item in a selection list (✓ = active)
