Here is a clip from a manual for a servo motor controller.
 
Below is the character to be entered in the program to command a move to HOME....or ORIGIN.
But....WHERE IN THE HECK IS THE "BAR" THAT THEY MENTION ?
I have a regular ol' keyboard and don't see it anywhere.
Thanks,

Shift Backslash?

Well I'll be dang.....Thanks Gerry !
There is a scratch through it on mine...makes it look like 2 vertical dashes.

Thanks again,
Russ

It's not a scratch. That's how keyboards show it.

Edit: My dell keyboard at work shows it as two lines, but the Microsoft keyboard I'm using now has a single line on it. hmmmm?

Yeah...I noticed that too....after looking more closely.  I checked a couple others as well...all have 2 lines.
weird

Thanks Gerry

All my Microsoft keyboards have one line , all my other keyboards (dell) show it as dashed.
