Appendix C: Using the Keyboard to Edit Data

To edit data, we use the CLOCK's numeric keyboard's alphanumeric capability, using the
<ALPHA> key. Each number has a triad of letters encoded. To enter a letter, the number into
which that letter is encoded must be pressed, followed by pressing the <ALPHA> key as many
times as the position of the letter in that triad. The following table shows how to enter each letter of
the alphabet, as well as some punctuation marks supported.
TO ENTER:

You may move through the edit lines using the <IN> key to move to the left, and <OUT> to move
to the right. You may also use the <BACK SPACE> key to erase the letter preceding the cursor.
The <CLEAR> key will erase an entry, unless the cursor is in the first position. If the cursor is in
