PROCEDURE FOR USING THE ALPHANUMERIC
KEYPAD
The alphanumeric keypad is used to draft messages (of no more than
150 characters) for sending SMSs (see Message Menu chapter).
Whether this function is available or not depends on the V35 software
version installed.
The various characters available are organised as follows:
Each key can be used to enter a figure, letter or mark allocated to that key,
as in the table of characters above. A figure is given first, followed by upper
case letters then lower case letters.
You move from one character to the next in turn by pressing the appropriate
key.
Each character is validated in one of the following ways:
- by pressing another key,
- by a timeout, starting from the last repeated press of a key,
- by pressing the same key again if that key is one with only one character
available (as with the key).
Until the character is validated, the cursor flashes as an underscore
underneath the last character entered (_). Once the character has been
validated, the cursor moves to the next character and flashes fully ( ). If this
is at the end of a line, the text scrolls vertically and the cursor moves to the
beginning of the next line.
The last character entered can be deleted by pressing the key.
Text whose length exceeds the display area can be viewed by one or more
presses of the key.
