Entering Text

Typing in the text for your labels is almost the same as typing on a computer. This, and the next few following pages, discuss functions in the 9600Ki that effect typing and formatting of text.

Insert Key

Normally, text is entered with the Insert Mode. In other words, the text you type is inserted into any existing text at the cursor's position. However, by exiting Insert Mode, the text you type replaces any existing text at the cursor's position.

When the 9600Ki is in Insert Mode, the INS indicator on the left side of the display comes on.

To enter Insert Mode, press the "INSERT" key.

To exit Insert Mode (start type over), press the "INSERT" key. The INS indicator on the display will go off.

Space Bar

The space bar adds blank spaces between characters in your text.

Shift Key

Lowercase letters can be entered by pressing their keys. Upper case letters can be entered in either of two ways.

Hold down the SHIFT key and press the letter you want to be in upper case. For the number and symbol keys, this will type the symbol on the upper portion of the key.

Caps Key

The second method for typing capital letters is to push the "CAPS" key. This allows you to type upper case letters continuously without holding down the Shift key.

When the CAPS key is pressed, the Caps indicator on the display will come on.
