4.2 Character Entries
There are two methods of character settings for various names and messages:
CHARACTER CODE ENTRY Method and DIRECT CHARACTER ENTRY Method.
CHARACTER CODE ENTRY Method
This method is to set a character by entering a Character Code and depressing the [#] key. The method is
operated only on the ECR keyboard (Ordinary Type or Flat Type).
DIRECT CHARACTER ENTRY Method
This method is to set a character by directly depressing the Character Keys on any of the following keyboard:
• ECR keyboard with the keyboard layout for programming
• PK-2 keyboard (PLU keyboard; hardware option)
By using those character keys, the characters are directly entered. In this manual, sample operations are
attached to most of the programming operations. And at name or message programming portions, characters
except for numeric and special symbols are entered by the DIRECT CHARACTER ENTRY method.
On the following pages, Character Code Tables under the CHARACTER CODE ENTRY Method and two
different keyboards under the DIRECT CHARACTER ENTRY Method are shown. These pages are to be
referred to, every time the “Character Entries” sequence is contained in various programming operations in
this manual.
Read through these pages at least once first, so that you may know the appropriate method of character
entries using the ECR keyboard and/or option keyboards.
