You can use the memory to store your most frequently used text files. The text remains in the
memory, along with its formatting, even after all characters are removed from the display
using the Clear function (holding down c and pressing * ).
When each file is stored, it is given a number to make recalling it easier. Up to 10 text files or
approximately 300 characters can be stored in the memory. (A single text file can have a max-
imum of 91 characters.)
Since a copy of the stored text file is recalled when the Recall function is used, the text can be
edited or printed without changing the originally stored file. When a file is no longer needed
or more space is necessary, the Memory delete function can be used to delete it.
☞
When inserting new batteries, be sure to insert the new ones within five minutes of
removing the old ones, otherwise any text files stored in the memory will be lost (unless
the machine is plugged into an electrical outlet with the AC adaptor).
STORING TEXT
To store a text file:
1 Hold down c and press 7. The message “STORE” appears on the display with the
currently selected file number.
☞
If the maximum number of characters has already been stored, the error message
“MEMORY FULL!” appears in the display. If this occurs, an existing text file must be
deleted before the new one can be stored.
To quit the Store function without storing the text, hold down
c and press 7
(or press just * ).
2 Press a number key (or press h or e) to select the file number where you wish to
store the text.
3 Press r. The text is stored under the selected file number and the text previously
shown in the display reappears.
☞
If a file is already stored under the selected file number, the message “OVER-
WRITE?” appears in the display and you must decide whether or not to overwrite it
(delete it from the memory and store the new one).
To overwrite the stored file with the new one:
● Press r to delete the previously stored file and store the new one under the selected
number.
☞
To go back and choose another file number without overwriting the text file, press
*, and then select a different file number.
