Constructing a Display Using Numeric Codes
The specific numeric code for each character is listed in Table 8.
Simply key in the appropriate numeric code number (see below)
and press
ENTER. The maximum number of characters that can be
entered is 16.
To replace a displayed character entered by mistake, press
CE and
key in the correct number. To accept the character, press
ENTER.
The cursor advances to the next position.
Characters that are accepted can be edited by pressing
SHIFT LEFT
ARROW
to back space; then new characters can be entered in their
place. After the last character is accepted, press
ENTER once more
to accept the character string. Numeric codes are especially
convenient if the display is long or complicated. Considerable time
is saved by eliminating scrolling.
How to select characters by code numbers:
In the left column, the “x” represents the second or third digit of
the code number and is supplied by the column number in which
the desired character is found. For example, if you wanted to
select a lower case “k”, you would use the first two digits from the
row in which the “k” is found, 10, and then use the number of the
column, 7, as the third digit of the code number. Thus, keying in
107 with the numeric keys will cause “k” to appear in the display
where the cursor is flashing. To accept it as correct, press
ENTER
again. The “k” will be accepted and the cursor will move to the
next position, ready to receive the next character code.
The characters in the areas that are boxed are limited in number to
four that can be selected in any one message. They can be
repeated, but only four different characters can be used.
