Display symbols

The following symbols appear at the top of the screen to indicate various operating conditions.

✱ This symbol appears at the top of the display to indicate that the current entry (in View or Edit mode) has been marked as Secret.

➞ ➞ ➞➞	These symbols indicate that all information in an

eThe key sound is on (see p.51).

All alarms are enabled. When this symbol is not shown, the alarm sound for any alarms that have been set is disabled (see p.131).

Built-in help and other messages

The Organizer has a built-in help feature which acts as a convenient, on-line reference manual. You can call up the Help feature at any time simply by pressing 2nd HELP . On-line help is quite extensive, so you may have to call up more than one screen to find the information you require.

When built-in help is not available

On-line help is only available when called from an application screen, ie. not while performing a menu command or some other operation. Pressing 2nd HELP when there is no application display on the screen will have no effect. Help is also not available within the Clock application.
