Using iTAP® Mode

iTAP mode lets you enter words using one keypress per letter. The iTAP software combines your keypresses into common words, and predicts each word as you enter it.

For example, to enter “WKH,” you would press 843. The iTAP software recognises that the most common word formed by this keypress combination is “WKH,” and predicts that “WKH” is the word you are spelling. Other common words or word fragments that can be spelled by the same keypress combination are presented as alternate choices at the bottom of the display.

If necessary, press #in a text entry screen to switch to L7$3 mode. An indicator tells you which mode is active (see page48). If L7$3 mode is not set as the 3ULPDU\ or 6HFRQGDU\ entry mode, see page 48.
