Text Programming
Certain functions on the Galaxy 2 Series can be set up with text descriptors or names. When one of these is
edited the keypad will initially show the name that is currently programmed. The A and B keys can be used to
move the edit cursor right and left in the name. Pressing the * key will delete the character to the left of the
cursor and move the cursor one position to the left (Left Delete). Pressing the # key will delete the character
at the cursor (Right Delete).
Pressing any of the numeric digit keys will enter character input mode, allowing a new character to be entered
at the cursor position. If there is any space to the right of the name, a new character will be inserted. If there
is no more space, new characters will overwrite existing characters.
There is a list of characters associated with each digit key, as shown in the following table. Pressing the same
key multiple times scrolls through the list until the correct character appears on the keypad. So, for example,
to insert the letter R the 7 key would be pressed three times. The behaviour of the B key changes while
character input mode is active. Instead of moving the cursor to the left, it displays the previous character in
the list. If a digit key is pressed too often by mistake this feature can be used to avoid having to cycle round
the list to get back to the correct character.
Character input mode can finish in a number of ways:
· After 2 seconds without a key press the text entry will finish automatically and the cursor will move to
the next position.
· A different digit key can be pressed. This will finish the first character input and begin character input at
the next position.
· The A key can be pressed. This is useful to avoid waiting for 2 seconds for the current character entry
to expire when the same digit key is to be used for the next character.
When the edit is complete, pressing the ent key will save the new name. Pressing the esc key cancels the edit
without saving any changes to the name.
