CHARACTER ENTRIES
As already stated, there are two method 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 [#] key.
This method is allowed only on the ECR keyboard.
DIRECT CHARACTER ENTRY Method
This method is to set a character by directly depressing the Character Key on any of the following
keyboard:
• Flat Keyboard with “Setting Mode Key Layout” sheet.
• TKB-1 Keyboard (Programming Keyboard; hardware option)
• PK-2 Keyboard (PLU Keyboard; hardware option)
By using those character keys, the characters are directly entered. In this manual sample operations
are attached to most of the programming operations. And at name or message programming
portions, characters are entered by the DIRECT CHARACTER ENTRY method.
On the following pages, Character Code Tables under the CHARACTER CODE ENTRY Method and
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 programming
operations in this manual.
Read through these pages at least once first, so that you may know the appropriate method of
character entries using the ECR keyboard and/or option keyboards.
