Entering Text in T9Abc Mode

T9Abc recognizes commonly used words for a sequence of keypresses and inserts
the word into your memo. Using T9 mode is much faster than the more traditional
method Alpha mode, since T9 requires only one key press per letter of the word that
you are spelling.

Note: See “Changing the Text Entry Mode” on page 45 for instructions on changing text entry modes.

1.

While in T9Abc mode, press each key that corresponds to a desired letter,

in sequence, one time.

For example, if you press the key sequence

, and the

word “bad” appears on the screen.

2.

When you have completed pressing all the keys for the desired word,

review the word displayed in your text.

3.

If the word is not the one you meant to enter, press the

key to show

the next word that matches the sequence of keys that you pressed.

For example, when you press the key sequence

, the

word “and” appears on the screen. Suppose the word you want is “cod”.
Just press the

key until “cod” appears in the display.

Note: If more than one word shares the same numeric sequence (such as, “263” for both “and” and

“cod”), T9Abc provides the most commonly used word (such as, “and” for “263”). Press the

key to display other words, if any are available.

For practice, enter the work ‘Samsung’ into your memo by pressing each
of the following keys only once:

T9Abc recognizes that the most commonly used word for the sequence of
keys you just pressed is “Samsung.”

Tip: To enter words not likely to be in the T9Abc dictionary, such as uncommon abbreviations or slang, you

might want to change the text entry mode from T9Abc to Abc.
