Data Fields
You can enter information and edit fields using the dialpad keys on the phone console.
Before you use the dialpad keys to enter information in fields, you can select Encoding or Mode to specify
how you want to enter information:
• Mode—enables you to enter just numbers, or text in title case, lowercase, or uppercase characters.
• Encoding—enables you to enter alphanumeric and special characters—including all the options
available when you select Mode—as well as characters in special languages.
The following tables list the Mode and Encoding options.
Onscreen Keyboard (VVX500/600 only)
Use the onscreen keyboard (shown above) to quickly update field information. If a data entry field only
requires numbers, the onscreen keyboard will just show numbers.
To access the onscreen keyboard, Select in the phone’s status bar, as shown below. The icon
displays in the status bar whenever you can enter information in a field.
