Text Entry

Text Input

T9®

Using this mode of text entry dramatically reduces the number of key presses required:

Press a key once for any letter you require on that key. The desired letter may not be displayed. Continue pressing other keys until the end of a word is reached; then check that the word has been typed correctly before continuing on to the next word. If the combination of letters typed has produced a word

which is not the one you require, press 0 or up or down repeatedly until the correct word is displayed. Continue to the next word.

If the word you require is not in the internal dictionary then it should be entered using the Normal ( ABC ) mode.

Other Text Modes

Select text mode (displayed in

Information Area on screen)

Normal ( U ), Greek ( V ) or Extended ( W ) modes: each time a key is pressed in quick succession it displays the next character available on that key. Releasing the key or pressing another key enters the character displayed. The cursor moves to the next position.
