4.0 Using T-Com™ WP

4.1 Navigating with Keystrokes

Although a mouse should be used with T-Com™ WP, the following section will demonstrate how to use the keyboard for navigation and editing.

4.1.1 General

All menus can be navigated with the arrow keys, the Tab key, the ALT key and the Enter key. The ESC key will generally back out from any menu.

A menu may be selected by simultaneously pressing the ALT key and the first, underlined letter of the desired menu. For example, to select the File menu, press ALT and F. The arrow keys may then be utilized to make a selection or change menus.

4.1.2 'Hot Keys'

Pressing a 'Hot Key' will abort the current process and immediately execute the associated function.

·         If the [Ctrl] key is pressed while moving through the data, larger steps will be made.

If the [Shift] key is pressed while moving through the data, a second cursor will appear and the sensor values in the dashboard will display the average data for the time between the cursors.

4.2  Navigating with the Mouse

4.2.1 General

All menus are navigable via a mouse just as any standard Windows-style interface.

4.2.2 In a 2D Table

The cursor location along a given curve can be selected by simply clicking the mouse in the desired location on the graph. (In the case of multiple parameters on the same graph, the TAB key is required to toggle between the various parameters. See Part Two-4.1.4)

The value of any single point along the X-axis can be changed by simply holding the left mouse key (the cursor will appear as a small hand) and dragging the point to the desired value.
