# Create Numeric Input Enable buttons

At run time the operator can use the Numeric Input Enable button to open a numeric pop-up keypad or scratchpad. When the operator presses the button, the pop-up opens. The operator can use the pop-up to enter a numeric value to send to the Value connection at the data source, or to ramp a displayed value up or down.
