Instruction Manual
It is important to understand that menu selections are set in a loop (Fig. 19
).
This
means that pressing the Scroll Down key (7, Fig. 2) cycles down through all the
available options within a given category, then returns to the first option. The Scroll
Up key (7, Fig. 2) cycles up through the options in the opposite order. Note that
this capability is a quick way to get to an option that is near the bottom of the list.
The following example demonstrates this capability.
Example:
To navigate to the “Select Item: Setup” menu option when the “Select Item:
Object” menu is displayed:
1. Press the Scroll Down key five times or the Scroll Up key once.
The screen in Fig. 20 displays two lines of information. The top line shows the
current menu level. The second line displays an option which may be selected
within that menu level. Some options are choices that select the next menu level
down. The Scroll keys move up and down within the list of available options,
showing one option at a time.
When the desired option is displayed on the second line, press the ENTER key
to choose that option and move down one menu level.
Press the MODE key to leave a level; e.g., the wrong menu option is chosen.
Important Note: No matter how many levels into the handbox are
traveled, each press of the MODE key moves up a level, until the top
level, „Select Item,“ is reached. Once in the Select Item level, press
MODE to return to the topmost level, „Select Item: Object.“
Navigation Exercise
To demonstrate how the handbox menu structure works, the following exercise
calculates Sunset time so an evening observing session can be planned.
Note: Before proceeding with this exercise, the handbox must be
properly initialized and aligned (see pages 12 and 14).
To Calculate Sunset time:
1. Press the MODE key several times, until “Select Item: Object” is displayed.
2. Press the Scroll Down key once to display the “Event” option in the “Select
Item” menu.
3. Press the ENTER key to choose the „Event“ option and move down a level.
„Event: Sunrise“ is displayed.
4. Press the Scroll Down key once to display the „Sunset“ option in the Event
menu.
