Keypad Modes

Numeric Mode

Numeric mode is the keypad default. When the keypad is not in CTRL, ALT or Alpha mode (i.e., the Orange key is

not enabled), each numeric key represents its associated number and no multi-tapping a key is required.

Alphabetic Mode

The keypad goes into alphabetic (alpha) mode when the orange key is pressed and remains in alpha mode until

the orange key is pressed a second time. A solid orange dot appears in the device display when alpha mode is

active and disappears when it is turned off.

In this mode, multi-tapping a key generates the letters on the respective key; lower case letters first, followed by

upper case letters. For example, in alpha mode the '2' key cycles through 'a', 'b', 'c', 'A', 'B', and 'C' depending on

the number of taps.

Function Key Mode

The keypad goes into function key mode when the blue key is pressed. ‘F’ keys, displayed on the keypad in blue,

are accessible in un-shifted mode only (when alpha mode is off). If the keypad is currently in alpha mode (an

orange dot appears in the device display) and 'F1' is required, press the orange key to exit alpha mode and return

to un-shifted mode; press the blue key; press the appropriate number key (e.g., press number '1' for 'F1', press

number '2' for 'F2', etc.).

ALT/CTRL Plus Character

Some applications support shortcut keys (hot keys), such as ALT+F, CTRL+C.

To use shortcut key combinations:

1. In un-shifted mode, press the blue key one time.

2. Press the left soft key (ALT) or right soft key (CTRL).

3. Press the orange key to enter alpha mode.

4. Multi-tap the appropriate key to select the desired letter (e.g., multi-tap the ‘3’ key three times to select lower

case 'f').

5. Press the orange key again to exit alpha mode.

When the orange key is pressed the second time to exit alpha mode, the key combination generates (e.g., ALT+F).

The blue key is automatically released after exiting the alpha mode.
