When an instrument function requires you to enter text, such as entering an Ethernet hostname, a touch screen alphabetic keyboard is displayed. See Figure: Touch Screen Keyboard. Press the “?123” button to toggle to the digits and symbols keyboard. Use the left arrow button (backspace) to delete the character to the left of the insertion point. The insertion point can be moved to a touched position in the data entry field. You can enable caps lock by double tapping the shift button.

Use the EZ keyboard to enter frequently used text strings with a single screen tap. The EZ keyboard is initially populated with default values. Each button enters the entire string as shown on the key. For convenience, you can set an automatic Separator character to be placed between each EZ key string.
To change a key’s value:
1. Press the pencil (edit) button. The EZ buttons will become highlighted.
