How to move around: the jump function
If you already know the exact function you need to use, it is possible to jump directly to a specific page
number instead of working your way through the job directories. The jump function also allows you to mark
frequently used pages for easy jumping.

If you need to move to a distant job, it may sometimes be necessary to press
EXIT several times, and then move down through two or more job directories. In
such cases, it is much faster to jump directly to a specific page.
You may have noticed that most page displays have a unique three-digit
number in the upper right comer. This is the Display Page number. For example,
"Multi edit 2. Multi Volume" is, page #402. If you frequently need to adjust the
settings of this page, remember this page number. Then, no matter where you
are, you can press JUMP, 4, 0, 2, and ENTER to jump instantly to that page.
1. Press JUMP.
2. Enter the three digit page number.
3. Press ENTER and you will jump to the specified page.
While you are becoming familiar with the SY99 it will probably be easier for you
to select the desired page while viewing a page directory. However as you gain
more experience, you may find it convenient to use the JUMP key to go directly
to frequently-used pages. The page numbers for each function are listed in the
REFERENCE section of this manual and on the supplied JOB TABLE card.
