The alphabetic/numeric Shift mode key is used to shift the
QMD101M keypad between the alphabetic and numeric modes.
Pressing and releasing the Shift key before pressing any other key,
places the keypad in either numeric mode (the shift mode indicator
displays a) or alphabetic mode (the shift mode indicator displays
a or a). Use numeric mode for numbers and symbols (- and .),
and alphabetic mode for symbols and letters located in the upper half
of the keys.
For example, when the shift mode indicator displays a, press key 1
to write a letter C. To write a letter D, change the shift mode to a
and press key 1.
