This box lets you input characters, numbers, and symbols. The character currently selected for editing is shown inverted (white on black). When you save the data for the first time, the box will contain a default name. The inverted highlight can be moved as required by using the [DATA/JOG] dial.

If you move the cursor to this button and press the [ENTER] key, you will return to the previous screen with- out changing the name.

FINS button

Inserts an under-bar space (“_”) at the inverted edit posi- tion. All characters following the insert are moved to the right. Pressing the [INC] key has the same effect as the INS button.

NOTE

•To add characters to a name that has less than the maximum number of characters, move the cursor to the INS button and press the [ENTER] key to insert “_”, then change the name as required.

GDEL button

Deletes the character at the inverted edit position. All characters following the delete are moved to the left. Pressing the [DEC] key has the same effect as the DEL button.

HText palette

This displays the characters, numbers, and symbols that can be input in the text input box. To enter a new character at the inverted edit position, move the cursor to the desired character in the text palette and press the [ENTER] key. The available characters and symbols are as follows:

A–Z a–z SPC(space) , . ! " # & / * + - < > : ;

By repeatedly pressing the [ENTER] key you can sequen- tially select and enter the characters displayed for each number button. For example, if you move the cursor to “1” in the number palette and then repeatedly press the [ENTER] key you will sequentially select the following number/characters for entry: 1 → P → Q → R → S → p → q → r → s → 1, and then the cycle repeats.
