Setup Commands
Press the tilde “~” key to enter command mode and the keyer responds with “CO” (dah-di-dah-
dit dah-dah-dah). Enter a setup command. If the command is invalid then the keyer will send an
error character (di-di-di-di-di-di-di-dit) and return the keyer to normal mode. If the user wishes
to re-attempt modifying features using command mode, he must re-enter command mode by
pressing “~” key again. If you enter the command mode accidentally, press ESC key to exit. At
any time, press ENTER to accept and exit or press ESC to cancel and exit. Alternately, pressing
CTRL+Key to directly enter the command mode; that is, CTRL+S is the same as “~S”. To
perform this action, press and hold the CTRL key, press a letter key B to Z, and then release the
CTRL key. Refer to the appendix “Setup Commands” on page 46 for a table of these
commands.
C# Character space – increases the inter-character space with # standard intra-character
spaces, where # is a single digit from 0 to 9. This allows the normally three-unit long
inter-character space up to 12 units long. Note the inter-character space is always at
least four units shorter than the word space. Therefore, you might have to increase
the word spacing before adjusting the character space.
Press LEFT or DOWN to decrease or press RIGHT or UP to increase the character
spacing, or enter one digit 0 to 9 to set the character spacing. Press ENTER to accept
and exit, or press ESC to cancel and exit.
