If you’re navigating on the961’s CHART screen, the CURSOR PAD is used to move theon-screen square cursor to designate a position on the chart. Ifyou’re at other screens, however, the CURSOR PAD is used tohighlight different selections of data.Using the cursorpad on the chartscreenOn the CHART screen, you can move the CURSOR PAD in anup-to-down, left-to-right, or diagonal direction. You can movethe cursor diagonally by pressing between any two of its arrowindicators. The harder you press the CURSOR PAD, the fasterthe cursor moves.
