6.4.2 ENTERING DESCRIPTION MANUALLY 
 
The description can be up to 12 characters long and can be a mix of 
numbers, symbols or letters.   
 
During the procedure to set the description the numeric keypad will work in a 
similar way to a mobile telephone.  Pressing a number briefly will show the 
number and holding it down will scroll through all the characters.  
 
The numbers and characters are: 
 
1 - / \                   
2 A B C 
3 D E F  
4 G H I 
5 J K L 
6 M N O 
7 P Q R S 
8 T U V  
9 W X Y Z 
0  _  [  ]   Where _ is a Space (Not underscore)        
 
The limitations of the 7 segment display sometimes make it difficult to display 
some letters.  The characters and the displayed symbols are: 
 
A B C  D E  F  G H  I  J  K L M N  O P Q R  S  T U  V W X  Y Z  -    /  \   (   ) 
 
 
 
 
The characters will be stored as text so the output of the RS-232 interface will 
be correct. 
 
 
The numbers 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 will be 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0  
 
Note that this method is only used where alpha-numeric data is permitted. 
This is used for the Description field and the User ID number, Scale ID 
number in the parameters section.
