Enter Characters
The names you enter can be up to 50 characters long. These can contain
a mixture of upper and lower case letters, spaces, numbers, and
punctuation.
To enter letters and numbers, press the keys repeatedly to cycle through
the characters until you reach the one you want to use.
EG: To enter the number 7, press four times.
You can insert spaces between words, change from upper to lower case,
and delete or insert special characters as required.
Pressing to display hint labels will help you use the various editing
commands.
TIP: If you press a different key, the cursor will jump to the next
space. If you need to use a character that is on the same key as
the previous character, pause for a moment until the cursor moves
forward. This will ensure you do NOT overwrite your text.
TIP: Press if you make a mistake and wish to delete a
character.
