The machine’s memory can be used to save and recall your most frequently
used text messages. These messages remain in the memory, even of you clear
the working area by holding down the
CODE key and pressing the CLEAR key.
When stored, each file is given a number to make recall easier. File numbers
are between 0 and 99. This machine’s memory can store up to 3,400 characters.
If the memory becomes full, subsequent storage attempts will cause the message
“MEMORY FULL!” to be displayed. In this case, you must delete an existing text
file before you can store the new one.
When a stored text file is recalled, a copy of that file is placed into the working area
and can be edited, reformatted or printed. Since a copy is used, the original file is
not removed from the memory, so you can recall the same file any number of times
without changing it. When recalling a file, if some text is currently in the working
area, you must choose whether to replace the working area text with the stored file
or to join them.
When a file is no longer needed, you can erase it from the memory using the M.DEL
function. This function can also be used to make space in the memory when it is full.
