Operating the Dual Screen Features
Select Left
Press the Select Left key ( ) to position the cursor in the session on the left side of the
display when the display is in side-by-side format. The Select Left key operates in zoom
and side-by-side modes. The session on the left side is now the active session and receives
immediate screen updates. The session on the right side is “frozen,” which means it does
not display new screen updates until it becomes the active session. The Select Left key
has no effect if the left side session is already active.
See “Reverse Keys,” below, for additional information about the Select Left key.
Select Right
Press the Select Right key ( ) to position the cursor in the session on the right side of
the display when the display is in side-by-side format. The Select Right key operates in

receives immediate screen updates. The session on the left side is “frozen,” which means
it does not display new screen updates until it becomes the active session. The Select
Right key has no effect if the right side session is already active.
See “Reverse Keys,” below, for additional information about the Select Right key.
