Some options during programming require you to enter alpha characters. To enter an alpha character, press
the key that has that letter written below it. The keypad displays the number digit of the key. Next, press
the select key or area that corresponds to the loca tion of the letter under the key. Pressing a different
select key or area changes the letter. When an other digit key is pressed, the last letter displayed is retained
and the process starts over.

characters on the 9 digit key are Y, Z, and space. You can also enter the following characters: – (dash),
. (period), * (asterisk), and # (pound sign) using the 0 (zero) key and the four select keys or areas from left
to right. For example, to enter a – (dash), press the 0 (zero) key and then the left select key or area. A dash
now appears in the keypad display. The table below shows the character locations for DMP keypads.
