Text Entry Via The Fireball Remote Control - Escient FireBall E-120 Installation And User Manual

Text Entry Via the FireBall Remote Control

The remote control can be used to enter text in all text fields. This text entry capability
is provided to allow you to fill out short text fields – such as those that occur in the
setup and edit screens. FireBall's IR keyboard should be used when extended typing is
required.
Entering Numeric Entry Mode
In fields where FireBall expects only numeric characters to be entered (such as phone
number fields), an indicator will appear on the screen that displays the letters "123"
indicating that only numbers can be entered.
Typing Characters with the Remote
The remote control based text entry capability is similar to that provided on standard
telephones and cell phones. Each numeric key has characters associated with it that can
be accessed by pressing the key one or more times. You have .5 seconds after a key is
pressed to enter a second character from the same key. If you press the same key within
.5 seconds, the second character associated with that key replaces the initial character.
If you do not press the same key within .5 seconds, the text cursor moves to the next
location so that the same key can be pressed again to enter a second character.
