How to
Enter Text
When is Text Entry Used?
Text is entered when naming an account (with optional Departmental
Accounting).
How is Text Entry Done?
Text entry is done via the numeric keypad in a fashion similar to cur-
rent cell phone text entry. Each key, 2 through 9, has three or four
letters displayed above it.
There is no dedicated key to switch between alpha and numeric
mode. On those screens (and only those screens) where either an
alpha or numeric character may be entered (e.g. preset names,
postal codes, account names), tap a numeric key to cycle through
the 4 possibilities for that key. For example, tapping the “2” numeric
key cycles through "2" - "A" - "B" - "C". Extended character sets are
provided for foreign markets on a country-by-country basis. In those
cases, a numeric key may be tapped several times (greater than
four) to cycle through the complete character set associated with a
key.
Account Names
For account names, the first letter of the first word automatically de-
faults to uppercase.
If you wish to enter two consecutive alpha characters that are located
on the same numeric key (such as “DE”), you must wait for the cursor
to automatically move right to the second character’s position before
entering the second character. There is about a 1-second delay follow-
ing an alpha entry before the cursor moves one position to the right.
