Table 10.X details the differences between the various types of displays,
what parts of each can be configured and what keys are unique to each
display.

Select ASCII Input from the Add menu.

2.

Choose Small or Large from the list.

Buttons

The following buttons are common to all four keyboard displays, and are
used to edit the string displayed in the scratchpad:

INS (Insert)—toggles the keyboard between Insert (INS) and

Overstrike (OVR) modes.

When the button is “off” (default) the keyboard is in Insert mode.

New characters appear at the current cursor position. The cursor also
moves one character to the right. If the scratchpad is full, the new
character will not be inserted.

When the button is “on”, the keyboard is in Overstrike mode. New
characters type over existing characters.

The state of the INS button is maintained between screen changes but
not between power cycles.

DEL (Delete)—deletes the character at the current scratchpad cursor

position.

<<—moves the cursor in the scratchpad to the left.

The button auto-repeats at the rate defined in the Options menu.

>>—moves the cursor in the scratchpad to the right.

The button auto-repeats at the rate defined in the Options menu.

CLR (Clear)—clears the scratchpad.
