CHARACTER ENTRIES
As already stated, there are two methods of operations for character settings for names or messages:
CHARACTER CODE ENTRY Method and DIRECT CHARACTER ENTRY Method.
CHARACTER CODE ENTRY Method
This method is to set a character by entering a Character Code and depressing the [#] key.
This method is allowed in all cases, but is operated only on the ECR Keyboard (Ordinary
Type or Flat Type).
DIRECT CHARACTER ENTRY Method
This method is to set a character by directly depressing the Character Key on any of the
following keyboard:
•
Rat Keyboard (ECR Keyboard Flat Type) with “Setting Mode Key Layout” sheet
(refer to Case 2)
•
TKB-1 Keyboard (Programming Keyboard; hardware option)
•
PK-2 Keyboard (PLU Keyboard; hardware option)
By using those character keys, the characters are directly entered. In this manual, sample
operations are attached to most of the programming operations. And at name or message
programming portions, characters are entered by the CHARACTER CODE ENTRY method.
Instead of this, you may depress the Character Keys. For example, instead of entering 401
[#] (to enter character “A”), you may simply depress Character Key “A” on any of the above
keyboards.
On the following pages, Character Code Tables under the CHARACTER CODE ENTRY Method
and two different keyboards under the DIRECT CHARACTER ENTRY Method are shown. These
pages are to be referred to, every time the “Character Entries” sequence is contained in various
programming operations in this manual.
Read through these pages at least once first, so that you may know the appropriate method of
character entries using the ECR keyboard and/or option keyboards.
