Character Entries for Programming Operations:
There are two methods of operations for character settings for names or messages: CHARACTER
CODE ENTRY Method and DIRECT CHARACTER ENTRY Method.
CHARACTER CODE ENTRY Method:
This method is to set a character by entering a Character Code and depressing the [#/NS] key.
This method is allowed on the ECR keyboard.
DIRECT CHARACTER ENTRY Method:
This method is to set a character by directly depressing the Character Key on the following key-
boards.
• ECR Normal Keyboard (Setting operations including character entries can be performed after
the key operation “81 [@/FOR].)
• ECR Flat Keyboard using the “SET Mode Key Layout” sheet
• PK-2 Keyboard (PLU Keyboard; hardware option)
By using those character keys, the characters are directly entered. In this manual, sample opera-
tions are attached to all the programming operations. And at name or message programming por-
tions, characters are entered by the CHARACTER CODE ENTRY method. Instead of this, you may
depress the Character Keys. For example, instead of entering 11[#/NS] (to enter character “A”),
you may simply depress Character Key “A” on any of three keyboards above.
On the following pages, Character Code Tables under the CHARACTER CODE ENTRY Method and
the three different Keyboards under the DIRECT CHARACTER ENTRY Method are shown. These
pages are to be referred to, every time the “Character Entries” sequence is contained in various pro-
gramming operations in this manual.
