Toggling Between Alpha and Numeric Modes

The 29-key keyboard defaults to numeric mode, which means that the keyboard boots up to numeric mode after each hard reset.

Numeric mode is when you type numbers with the number keys. Alpha mode is when you type letters or characters with the number keys. The keyboard switches between alpha and numeric modes easily.

The command bar displays an icon that indicates the status of the keyboard so that you can see which mode you’re in when toggling; see Alpha/Numeric Indicator on page 4-3.

Switching to Alpha Mode

To switch modes, tap the Blue modifier key as follows:

Single-tap to switch only the next character pressed to alpha mode.

The keyboard automatically switches back to numeric mode for the next key pressed.

Double-tap to switch to alpha mode permanently.

Double-tap again to switch back to numeric mode permanently.

Alpha Indicators

Each number key has a blue section with white characters inside it that indicate which letter or symbol is typed when you press that key in alpha mode.

Please note that when typing in alpha mode, you must use the same multi-press method you would use when typing letters on a phone keypad. Each key press types the next letter in the sequence as displayed by the alpha indicator.

Note: You can still use regular Blue key combinations in alpha mode by pressing and holding the Blue modifier key with the next key in the combination. For combinations, see 29-Key Blue Key Combinations (Alpha Mode) on page 4-7.

Shift Functionality

In Alpha Mode

When you switch the keyboard to alpha mode, letters type in lowercase by default.

To capitalize letters, tap the SFT key as follows:

Single-tap to capitalize only to the next letter pressed.

Double-tap to turn CAPS LOCK on and off.

In Numeric Mode

Numeric mode is the default keyboard mode. When the keyboard is in numeric mode, tap the SFT key once to produce special characters; see 29-Key Shift Functionality in Numeric Mode on page 4-7.
