While using Standard Text Entry, the FUNC key serves as a “shift lock”
key. For letters, uppercase text is typed by default, and you can shift to
lowercase by pressing the FUNC key before entering a character. For
punctuation, the FUNC key accesses a second set of punctuation marks.
The shift action of the FUNC key remains active until it is pressed again.
Use the
34
keys to move the cursor to the desired location in edit fields.
Press FUNC
3
or FUNC
4
to move the cursor to the beginning or end of
an edit field, respectively. Use the CLR key as a backspace key to erase
characters before the cursor, and press FUNC CLR to clear the entire field.
The PSR-410 character set and corresponding entry codes are provided
below for reference. Pressing FUNC to toggle the shift lock status will
produce lower case characters for letters, and a second set of punctuation
marks for special characters. For brevity, lower case letters are not shown in
the table below.

Using QuickText
QuickText allows you to store up to 10 commonly used text items for instant
recall while editing alphanumeric fields. For example, as you search for,
store and name new CONV or TGRP objects, you may find that you type
the same words over and over, such as POLICE, FIRE, SHERIFF, STATE,
CITY, COUNTY, etc.
