Page counter
The decimal two digits of the page counter are enlarged in the center of
the screen, whereas the hundreds (0-1) are displayed behind the hyphen
in the top row of the display.
Although the G-Note 5000 theoretically has the ability to manage up to 99
workbooks of 199 digital pages each, in practice such ability is limited to
the maximum storage capacity of the built-in flash memory. The G-Note
5000 has a storage capacity of 32MB, which is about 150 digital pages,
and G-Note 7100 is about 75 pages.
3.3 Starting a new page
Press the New button every time you turn a paper sheet on the
notepad to start a new page.
It is strongly recommended to number the sheets on your
notepad and copy the workbook and page number on the LCD display
each time you turn a sheet. This will help to synchronize the paper
sheets with the workbooks and digital pages in the G-Note’s memory.
To avoid the creation of superimposed digital pages, make sure
that the page status indicator on the LCD screen displays an
empty page before you start writing on a new page.
A densely written paper sheet will take up more memory space
than a half empty one.
3.4 Modifying notes
U
Press the Page Up button to browse previous sheets and make
corrections or additional notes.
You may turn back several sheets at a time to check earlier
notes. However, if you want to make additions on a particular
sheet, you must synchronize the page counter by repeatedly pressing
the Page Up button until the page counter indicates the same number
as the one you have marked on the sheet itself. Press the Page Down
button to continue working on the sheet with your most recent notes.
V
Press the Page Down button after browsing previous sheets on your
notepad. This will return the digital page record to the sheet with your
most recent notes.

Pressing the Delete button equals tearing off or crossing out a paper
sheet of the notepad.

appear on the LCD screen.
Press

Press ³to cancel and return to note taking mode
Be very prudent not to push the Delete button accidentally, as
the contents of an erased digital page in memory can not be
recovered, and page number synchronization may become corrupt!
Although deleting pages using the Delete button will free up
memory space, this method is mainly provided as an emergency
option. It is recommended to use the Digital Organizer software that
comes with the G-Note to delete pages from memory after download
to a PC.
