Alpha Keys

On some screens permitting data entry, when field requiring non-numeric input

(such as a password) is selected, softkeys and application keys function as alpha

keys used to enter alphabetic characters. Figure 2-5 shows an example of the

initial alpha key screen, with the softkeys shown to indicate their relationship to the

display.

Figure 2-5: Alpha Keys and Softkeys

The alpha keys are automatically displayed when the cursor is moved into a data

entry box that supports alpha entry. The first set of softkeys shown is groups of

upper-case letters (Figure 2-5). Press the MORE DOWN key to view lower-case

groups (Figure 2-6).

Figure 2-6: Lower Case Alpha Key Groups

In addition to those accessed via softkeys, additional sets of characters are

accessible using the A3 and A4 keys. A1 functions as an ESCAPE key, which takes

the display back one level, either to the previous set of alpha keys or, if the display

is currently on the first set of alpha keys, out of alpha key mode, returning focus to

the currently selected input field. Other assignments include a variety of symbols.

For each of these sets of characters, a group of four to six letters is shown per

softkey.

To enter a character, press the softkey under the group that includes the required

character. If the set of keys shown does not include the required character, press

the DOWN navigation key to view the next set. Press the DOWN navigation key
