Shift Keys (1 to 4), Shift Lock Key

Used to designate the shift of the character keys. Each character has three different characters, each of which
is designated by the Shift Key 1 to Shift Key 3. (The Shift Key 4 is not used for the MA-1450 series models.)
Shift Key 2 and Shift Key 3 are effective for one following character only. After that, the Shift 1 mode is
automatically regained.
The Shift Lock Key is used to hold the shifted status for a series of characters. To change the shifted status
locked by the Shift Lock Key, one of the Shift Keys (1 to 3) must be pressed prior to the character key
depression.

Character Keys

Used to enter alpha/numerics as characters. In setting a name or message, simply depress the corresponding
character key here, instead of a character code and the [#] key combination on the ECR keyboard.

ex.)

A ä

“A” is entered in the Shift 1 mode.

Operate: ([SFT1]) [A ä]

“a” is entered in the Shift 2 mode.

Operate: [SFT2] [A д]

“д” is entered in the Shift 3 mode.

Operate: [SFT3] [A ä]

The numeric keys [1] through [0] (on the second row from the top) are used as character keys (i.e. the
entered number will be part of the name or message to be printed).
Also note that those numeric keys may be entered in the Shift 1, 2, or 3 mode.

Function Keys

Except for the [CODE] key, each of the function keys corresponds to the identical key
installed on the ECR keyboard as to the function in programming operations. ([CLEAR] = [C], [X] = [@/FOR])
The [CODE] key cannot be used for the MA-1450 series ECRs.

The “One Double-size Declaration” (by depressing [X] once prior to the required character) and the “All
Double-size Declaration” (by depressing [X] twice before the entire descriptor) are the same as in setting
characters on the ECR keyboard.
Any characters not listed on the TKB-1 keyboard may be entered by the code entry method on the ECR
keyboard.
