<MIX ™> key puts a space into the Program name, and jumps you to
the special characters in the character set. The <MORE £> key inserts
an ‘0’, and jumps you to the numbers section of the character set. The
complete procedure for naming and storing a Program is as follows:
• After you have made all the necessary modifications to the
Algorithm, press the <NAME> button once. The RP-12 is now in
Name mode. The display shows:
The blocked numbers preceding each option on the bottom line indi-
cate the Function key that will perform the function shown.
• Using the <UP/DOWN> Parameter buttons, scroll to the charac-
ter you want to use, or press one of the Function buttons. When
you have selected the character you want, press the <RIGHT>
Parameter key. Note that the cursor moves to the next character.
Repeat this procedure until the Program name is satisfactory.
Unique to the RP-12 naming process, are several special naming func-
tions. The <COMPARE> and <STORE> buttons allow you to bump an
entire name or section of a name either left or right in one-space incre-
ments. The procedure is as follows:
• In Name mode, use the <RIGHT> and <LEFT> Parameter but-
tons to place the cursor underneath the character to be moved.
• Press the <COMPARE> or <STORE> buttons to move the char-
acters either left or right.
The Program <UP> key copies the character the cursor is under into
memory. This allows you to place a copy of that character (using the
Program <DOWN> key) anywhere else in the name that you want.
The procedure is as follows:
• In Name mode, use the <RIGHT/LEFT> Parameter buttons to
place the cursor under the character to be copied.
• Press the Program <UP> key. The selected character is copied
into memory.
• Move the cursor to the location into which you want to place a
copy of the character and press the Program <DOWN> key. The
copy appears in the location you selected.
NOTE: Press the <UTILITY> button to abort the operation. When
you change programs the original name will return.
