Entering TextC
When you are setting certain menu 
selections, such as the Station ID, you may 
need to enter text into the machine. Most 
number keys have three or four letters printed 
on keys. The keys for 0, # and  l do not have 
printed letters because they are used for 
special characters.
By pressing the relevant number key 
repeatedly, you can access the character you 
want.

once between numbers. To enter a space in 
a name, press  c twice between characters.
Making corrections
If you entered an incorrect letter and want to 
change it, press  d to move the cursor under 
the incorrect character. Then press 
Clear/Back . Re-enter the correct character. 
You can also back up and insert letters.
Repeating letters
If you need to enter a letter that is on the 
same key as the letter before, press  c to 
move the cursor to the right before you press 
the key again.
Special characters and symbols 
Press  l, #  or  0, and then press  d or  c to move 
the cursor under the special character or 
symbol you want. Then press  OK to choose 
it.
