Text Input
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 4 repeatedly until the correct word is displayed. Continue
to the next word.
If the word you require is not in the internal dictionary (i.e. it is a proper noun
or a rarely used word) then it should be entered using the Normal (ABC)
mode.
Other Text Modes
To access any of the other text entry modes use A to cycle through until the
desired mode is displayed in the left side of the display.
When using Normal (ABC), Greek (ΑΒΓ) or Extended (
AÄÅ
) text entry
modes, each time a key is pressed in quick succession it will display the next
character available on that key. Releasing the key, or pressing another key will
enter the currently displayed character and the cursor will move to the next
position.
Editing Text
Pressing 4 will move you up or down one text line.
Pressing 2 will move you left or right one character. When the cursor is
moved over a character and another key pressed this will insert the new char-
acter immediately before the selected character. Pressing @ will delete the
character to the left of the cursor or delete the current line when pressed and
held.
