Basic Keys
Alpha/Numeric Modes
The keypad defaults to numeric mode. Use the ALPHA key to toggle between numeric and alpha modes.
Pressing the ALPHA key locks the keypad in numeric mode, alpha mode (lowercase), or alpha mode
(uppercase).
The Title Bar on the screen displays an icon indicating the alpha/numeric status of the keypad.
Alpha Indicators on the Number Keys
Each number key displays the characters typed when you press that key in alpha mode.
Note that when typing in alpha mode on the Dolphin 6100, you must use the same multi-press method
you would use when typing letters on a phone keypad. Each key press types the next letter in the
sequence as displayed by the alpha indicator.
