Select Prompt

The Select Prompt indicates that an answer is expected from you.

If the computer accepts your answer, the data will be stored and another Prompt usually appears. If your answer is not on the accepted list, the terminal will beep and “??” will appear after the original question. The question will then be repeated. If the list within the computer is short, it will be displayed on the screen to help you in making a selection. If a list does not display, enter a “?” for a “help message” to appear on the screen. The message should assist you to respond to the question.
