PROGRAMMING TEXT WITH THE KEYPAD

When an item (e.g. Zone 01) is selected, press "EDIT", "ENTER" or """ to enable text entry

for that item.

Text entry has two fields. The top field contains the text which has been entered and the

bottom field contains an array of characters which may be entered.

Each field has one of two cursors. The active cursor █ may be moved through the field it is

in by use of the ! " cursor keys to select a character, or position in text. The inactive cursor

$

shows where the active cursor would be if it was in that field.

Holding the ! " keys down causes rapid movement.

There is a choice of 3 lines of characters in the bottom field (upper case letters, lower case

letters, numbers and symbols). These may be scrolled by use of the # and % cursor keys

when the active cursor is in the bottom line. Note that numbers can be entered directly from

the keypad, and the "NOT" key inserts a blank space.

"EDIT"

swaps the cursors between the two fields.

"INSERT"

toggles entry between "insert" and "typeover" modes.

"DELETE"

acts as backspace for a character just entered, or deletes any character in the

text selected by the cursor (active or inactive).

"ACK"

saves the text and returns the cursor to the item number.

"NEXT" &

step through items (e.g. zones).

"PREV"

"RECALL"

allows copying of the text from any zone or relay to any other zone or relay.

(Select zone/relay to be copied into. Press "RECALL" and select zone/relay

and number of zone/relay to be copied from. "ENTER" transfers the text.

This can then be edited).
