Using the Keypad

To enter letters and symbols, you will need to multitap layers on the keypad using the following instructions.

  1. Capital Letters (A-Z) > ABC

  3. Numbers (0-9) > 123
  4. Symbols ? !#$
  • Pressing the check symbol (P) button will change the keypad layer displayed on the screen.
  • Selecting specific letters will work through multi-tap. An individual letter is selected by repeatedly pressing the same key to cycle through the letters for that key.
  • Example: On Layer 1 - to select ‘h’ the user would press the 4 key two times.
  • An individual letter will be recorded after 1 second. The user must wait 1 second before entering an additional letter.
  • Example: On Layer 1 - after inputting “h,” the user must wait 1 second for the time clock to record the letter before pressing the 3 key once to input “d.”
  • Characters can be deleted once the input has been recorded.
