button once.
Backspace
(BKSP)
This key appears on both the 35- and 56-key keyboards. The BKSP key moves the
cursor back one space each time the key is pressed. If you are typing text, it deletes
the previous character each time it is pressed.
On the 43-key keyboard, the backspace is a shifted function; press Red + SP to
backspace. To delete a single character, press Red + SP. To delete multiple
characters, press Red + SP and hold the SP key.
Delete

This key appears on both the 35- and 56-keyboard. The Delete key deletes the next
character forward each time the key is pressed. On the 43-key keyboard, delete is a
shifted function; press Red + the Backlight key to delete.
Enter (ENT) The Enter key confirms data entry.
Escape
(ESC)
The Escape key performs a cancel action.
Power Key The Power key puts the terminal in and wakes the terminal from suspend mode; see
Suspend Mode on page 2-6.
SCAN Key The SCAN key activates the scan and “wakes” the terminals from sleep mode. Its
position allows convenient one-handed image-taking and/or bar code decoding.
Space (SP) The Space key moves the cursor one space.
Tab The Tab key moves the cursor to the next tab stop or the next control (on a form).
