After selecting the page to input an identifier directly, which button is pressed to engage the cursor?

The correct action for engaging the cursor after selecting the page to input an identifier directly is achieved by pressing the cursor button. In the context of many avionics systems, including those used in the T-6, the purpose of the cursor activation button is to initiate text entry or selection processes on the display.

The cursor button enables the user to manipulate and navigate through the various fields or options on the selected page. This is crucial for accurately inputting identifiers or other critical data. When the cursor is engaged, it allows for a seamless transition to inputting new information, which is a key function in operating navigational and communication systems effectively.

In contrast to other choices, such as buttons commonly used for confirming actions or executing commands, the cursor button is specifically designed for activating the pointer or selection mode on the interface. This distinction is important for maintaining efficient operation within the aircraft's systems.
