4.7 Corrections
In the INDIRECT mode, AROFLEX prints the input as entered from
the keyboard or tape reader; the desired result (cryptogram or deci
phered text) is produced in a separate OUTPUT operation via the internal
memory. It is thus possible to monitor the input and make corrections
if necessary, eliminating errors from the material held in memory and
ensuring error-free output. The CORR button (13) is used for this
purpose.
Each time the CORR button is pressed, the last character entered is
repeated in the input printout and it (or, during enciphering, its enciphered
equivalent) is erased from the memory. For example if, during enciphering
the word QWICK was entered instead of QUICK, and the mistake was
noticed as the K was entered, the procedure would be as follows:
1. Press CO R R button 4 times
(see Note below)
Type the correct characters
UICK
Input printout reads
QWICKKCIW; the last character
in memory is the enciphered
equivalent of the Q.
Input printout now reads
QWICKKCIWUICK, but only the
enciphered equivalent of the cor
rected word QUICK is stored in
the memory.
