Entering Characters
The instructions that follow show you how to enter characters in naming your files and folders. The method is much the
same as inputting names and numbers to your cell phone.
1
Move the cursor to the desired position by using the [DATA ENTRY] dial.
2
Press the appropriate button, [2
▲
] - [7
▲
] and [2
▼
]- [6
▼
], corresponding to the character you wish to enter.
Several different characters are assigned to each button, and the characters change each time you press the button.
To actually enter the selected character, move the cursor or press another letter-input button.
If you’ve entered a character by mistake, move the cursor to the character letter you wish to erase and press the
[7
▼
] (DELETE)
button. If you want to delete all of the characters on the line at once, press and hold down the
[7
▼
] (DELETE)
button for a while. When the cursor appears in reverse display (highlight), only the reversed area is
deleted.
3
To actually enter the new name, press the [8
▲
] (OK) button.
To cancel the operation, press the
[8
▼
] (CANCEL)
button.
■
Entering special character marks (umlaut, accent)
Select a character to which a character mark is to be added and press the
[6
▼
]
button
(before actual entry of the character.)
■
Entering miscellaneous characters (marks)
You can call up the mark list by pressing the
[6
▼
]
button, after actually entering a
character by moving the cursor.
Move the cursor to the desired mark by using the
[DATA ENTRY]
dial, then press the
[8
▲
] (OK)
or
[ENTER]
button.
■
Entering numbers
Press and hold down the appropriate button,
[2
▲
]
-
[7
▲
]
and
[2
▼
]
-
[5
▼
]
, for a
while, or press it repeatedly until the desired number is selected.
The following half-size
marks cannot be used in
naming files and folders:
¥ \ / : * ? “ < > |
In the case of characters
which are not accompanied
by special character marks,
you can call up the mark list
by pressing the [6
▼
] button
after selecting a character
(before actual entry of a
character).
