ESCRIPTION

ALPHA(
)
The toggle key for Alphabet/Numeral input.
When the system is in alpha-mode, a small icon will be shown in the lower right
corner of the display. Each numeric key can be used to generate one of the
three capital letters located on that number key. For example, number 2 can be
used to produce A, B, or C. Pressing the same key twice within one second, will
produce the letter B. Pressing the same key without halting longer than one
second will allow the user to toggle through the three letters. When the key
has been depressed for longer than one second or another key has been
pressed, the unit will send the real key code to the application program.
