Write message files for telex
If you want to write longer messages, you can use the Message function.
To write a message, do as follows:
1. From the main menu, select
Message
.
2. Select
New
at the bottom of the
MESSAGE
page.
3. You now have two options:
•
Type in the text
using your keyboard or the on-screen keyboard in
the top right corner. Note that you can only use telex characters.
To make sure the text is properly formatted at the receiving end, we
recommend starting the file with a few empty lines (press
Enter
).
Note You can set up the terminal to use a Cyrillic keyboard. For details,
see
To use Cyrillic characters on page 26.
