Alphanumeric Data Entry - Ingenico iWL255 Quick Reference Manual

Alphanumeric Data Entry

NOTE:
When performing data entry on screens that accept
both alpha and numeric characters, the method of
using a shift key "F" to access the alpha characters
and special characters is implemented. By pressing
the numeric key first and then pressing the "F" key,
you can scroll through all characters programmed on
that key.
The Administrator key is also designated for other special characters;
it is marked with a period, comma, # (pound) and * (asterisk). To select
one of the special characters, press that key and then press the 'F' key
until the desired character appears.
