Text and list entries (spell and list modes)
The spell and list modes are used to enter information or
choose from lists when selecting destinations, entering data
item names and editing entries. Most times, the system will
default to list mode, but both methods are available by
using the SPELL and LIST function buttons to toggle
between them. Using a combination of the methods
often is the fastest way to make an entry.

and numeric-only character loops built into the system as shown at right.

or press the CLEAR function button to erase the whole entryand start over.
