The Alphanumeric Pad; Double Button Presses - Kurzweil K2661 Musician's Manual

The Alphanumeric Pad

As its name implies, this set of 14 buttons lets you enter numeric values, and to enter names one
character at a time. Depending on where you are, the K2661 automatically enters letters or
numerals as appropriate (you don't have to select between alphabetic or numeric entry).
When you're entering numeric values, press the corresponding numeric buttons, ignoring
decimal places if any (to enter 1.16, for example, press 1, 1, 6, Enter). The display will reflect
your entries, but the value won't actually change until you press Enter. Before pressing Enter,
you can return to the original value by pressing Cancel. Pressing Clear is the same as pressing 0
without pressing Enter.
When entering names, you can use the Left/Right cursor buttons or the
buttons to move the cursor to the character you want to change. Use the labels under the
alphanumeric buttons as a guide to character entry. Press the corresponding button one or more
times to insert the desired character above the cursor. The Cancel button is equivalent to the
soft button, and Enter is the same as OK. The Clear button replaces the currently selected
character with a space. The +/- button toggles between uppercase and lowercase letters.
There's also a convenient feature called keyboard naming, which lets you use the keyboard to
enter characters in names. See page 5-5.
