MEMORY FUNCTIONS
You can use the memory to store your most frequently used text files. The text remains in the
memory, even after all characters are removed from the display using the Clear function
(holding down
f
and pressing
c
).
When each file is stored, it is given a number to make recalling it easier. Up to 9 text files or
about 300 characters can be stored in the memory. Each stored text file can have a maxi-
mum of 60 characters.
Since a copy of the stored text file is recalled when the Recall function is used, the text can
be edited or printed without changing the originally stored file. When a file is no longer
needed or more space is necessary, the Memory delete function can be used to delete it.
☞
When inserting new batteries, be sure to insert the new ones within five minutes of
removing the old ones, otherwise any text files stored in the memory will be lost
(unless the machine is plugged into an electrical outlet with the AC adapter).
STORING TEXT
To store a text file:
1
Hold down
f
and press
8
. The message “STORE:1–9?” appears on the display.
☞
If 300 characters have already been stored, the error message “MEMORY FULL!”
appears in the display. If this occurs, an existing text file must be deleted before
the new one can be stored.
2
Press the key (
1
to
9
) of the file number where you wish to store the text. The text
is stored under the selected file number and the text previously shown in the display
reappears.
☞
If a file is already stored under the selected file number, the message “OVER-
WRITE?” appears in the display and you must decide whether or not to over-
write it (delete it from the memory and store the new one).
To quit the Store function without storing the text, hold down
f
and press
8
(or press just
c
).
To overwrite the stored file with the new one:
●
Press
h
to delete the previously stored file and store the new one under the selected
number.
☞
To go back and choose another file number without overwriting the text file,
press
c
, and then press the key of a different file number.
RECALLING TEXT
To recall a text file:

Hold down
f
and press
