Entering information using the
onscreen keyboard
The onscreen keyboard lets you enter information
into text fields using the touchscreen.
You’ll see the onscreen keyboard when a text field
displays; if the field only requires numbers, you’ll
see a numerical keypad instead.
You’ll also see the following icons displayed on the
keyboard:
•
ABC
: Displays

Entering information using the dialpad
You can also enter information and edit text fields
using your phone’s dialpad.
First choose how to enter the information, using the
following soft keys
• Mode: Lets you enter numbers or text in title case,
lowercase, or uppercase characters.
• Encoding: Lets you enter characters from
foreign languages.
Change the text mode
On Trio 8300 systems, the
Place a Call displays
when you select
Place a Call from the main menu
or when you dial a number.
To enter numbers or all uppercase, all lowercase,
or title case letters, change to the appropriate text
entry mode, as follows:
1. Press the
Mode soft key.
2. Choose one of the following:
• Abc: Capitalises the first letter of each word
and uses lowercase for the remaining letters.
• ABC: Uses capital letters for all the letters
you enter.
• abc: Uses lowercase letters for all the letters
you enter.
• 123: Enter numbers only.
This will activate the text entry mode you’ve chosen.
You can select special characters used for
punctuation or a space from certain keys on the
phone's dialpad – see how below.
Note:
When you're in numerical (
123) mode, you
can't access special characters or spaces.
Repeatedly press the indicated key until the special
character you need is displayed. For example,
pressing the
1 key twice enters "|".
To enter a space, press
0 once. Pressing 0 twice
displays "/".
Wait one second for the system to select your
character. The onscreen cursor will then move to the
next character entry.
