IBM 1483 Manuale Utente

The Entry Assist function facilitates the creation and editing of text such as memos,
letters, and documents. For more information on the Entry Assist function, see
Chapter 5, “Entry Assist.”

In order to use the Entry Assist function, the control unit to which the display station
attaches must provide Entry Assist support. Consult the control unit operator’s manual
for additional Entry Assist specifications and operating procedures.

The Response Time Monitor (RTM) records the speed of communication between the
devices attached to a valid, properly configured control unit (Memorex Telex 1274 or
IBM 3274) and the host CPU with which they are attached. The RTM is accessed and
exited by pressing the ExSel key, followed by the F19 key (122-key or 104-key
keyboards). Consult the control unit operator’s manual for additional specifications and
operating procedures.

The keyboard switches are set at the factory according to the keyboard ordered. You
should not need to change them. If the settings are inadvertently changed, set them
according to the table on Page 4-16. If needed, use a pointed instrument to gently change
the settings.

Some keyboards do not have access to the keyboard switches. If you have this kind of
keyboard, you can set the switches through key sequences. See “Setting the Keyboard
Switches through Key Sequences” on Page 4-16 for the key sequences.
