LBC Entry Characteristics

LBC Entry Characteristics


All of the entry boxes in LBC operate similarly. Every time a change is made, both the text and the corresponding telescope Start buttons turn red to remind you that something has changed, but the cycle has not yet been (re-)started to implement the change. While editing the Entry value, you can press the Esc key at any time and the value that was present when you entered the Entry box will be restored. The color changes, too, as appropriate.

You cannot enter spaces in any of the entry boxes and only digits can be entered in the Cycle Time and Dwell Time boxes. A completely blank numerical entry will be treated as a 0.

You can activate an entry box by clicking into it or by using the Tab key on the keyboard to hop from field to field in the GUI.
