User Interface
FAX Attendant sounds a ‘‘beep’’ when you press an undefined key. The
message line either informs you if you have pressed an undefined function key,
or continues to show the last message.
The function key commands displayed on the screen apply only to the
active window.
Most windows use more commands than there are function keys.
Therefore they make use of two sets of function keys. The set of
standard function keys includes commands commonly used in most
windows.
The set of alternate function keys usually includes commands which are
unique to that window.
Function key
F8 labeled CHG-KEYS, acts as a ‘‘toggle’’ to switch the
displayed function keys from one set of commands to the other.
The function keys that you see when a window first opens are not
necessarily the standard ones. They are the keys that are expected to be
the most useful for that window.
Standard Function Keys
The following table shows the standard set of function keys. The standard
commands for keys
F2 and
F3 vary depending on the type of window. Also, a
given window may not require every command from the standard set. Unused
commands have blank screen labels.
