Multipress Mode - DOPOD 585 User Manual

Multipress mode

When you are in Multipress mode, you can enter a letter by
pressing the number key on which the letter appears. To
enter the fi rst letter on the number key, press the key once,
to enter the second letter, press the key twice quickly, and
so on. The letter entered most recently is underlined until
you have completed the keypresses for the letter and moved
on to the next letter.
For example: To enter the word "hat," press 44, 2, 8.
When you enter letters that are on the same number key,
you must pause after entering the fi rst letter and wait until the
underline disappears before entering the next letter, so your
Dopod585 can process the fi rst letter. This pause is called
the "Multipress time-out," and you can adjust the length of
the pause between keypresses.
For example: To enter the word "cat," press 222, pause,
press 2, and then press 8. Press the # key to move a
space.
To enter punctuation in Multipress mode, press 1 re peat ed ly
until you see the punctuation mark that you want.
To change the Multipress Time-Out setting:
1. Select Settings from the Start menu.
2. Select Accessibility.
3. In the Multipress time-out fi eld, select the length of the
pause between keypresses that you prefer.
