Dialpad entry
For ease of use, Nortel recommends the use of the external USB
keyboard.
The following rules apply when you enter text and special characters using
the dialpad.
• Press a key from 0 to 9 once to enter the corresponding number.
• Press a key from 2 to 9 repeatedly to cycle through the letters
assigned to that key, first in lower case and then in upper case.
For example, if you press the
5 key repeatedly, the following
characters are displayed, one at a time:
j -> k -> l -> J -> K -> L -> 5 ->
See Table 78 "Character key mappings" (page 341) for character key
mappings.
•
The insertion point remains in its current position as long as you
continue to press the same key.
•
The entry is accepted if either a new key is pressed or if two seconds
pass with no entry. The insertion point moves 1 space to the right.
For example, to enter the word Nortel, press the following key
sequence:
6 [2 second delay] 67835
Although special characters are not required, key 1 generates
commonly used special characters, such as the period (.), at symbol
(@), and underscore (_).
