Change Input Page and Page Setup

“Change Input Page” and “Page Setup” commands are available in Ucompose version 5.0.4.166 or later.

Selection Value Type of Variable allows selection of a Variable value to use to determine the Input page.

Selection of Input Page of Increment will increment the current input page by the previously selected value.

Selection of Input Page of Set To will set the current input page to the previously selected value.
