Using the Keypad
The HC700-L keypad enables the user to enter both alpha-
betic and numeric data to the software application. However,
since the keypad can only contain a limited number of keys,
some special keys are assigned to perform special tasks that
are usually found on full-size computer keyboards. These are
produced using a combination of the existing keys on the
HC700-L keypad.
Two sets of keys exist on the HC700-L:
1. Keys active when in Alphabetic mode, which are those
seen on the overlay of the HC700-L keypad.
2. Keys active when in Shift or Function mode, which are
those seen next to each key on the HC700-L keypad
panel.
Press the
<SHIFT> key to toggle between the Alphabetic and
Numeric keypad modes. Figure 7 shows the HC700-L keypad
and Table 3 describes the HC700-L keys assignment.
