10 NBDP FILE OPERATIONS

10-2

2. Press the [1] key to choose New. The title bar shows Untitled 1 or Untitled since a file

name has not yet been assigned. The cursor marks the location where you may type

text.

Note: When the working area is full, the message "File can't open" appears. Then, you

would close a file to clear a working area in order to open a file.

3. Type your message.

Note 1: Do not use lower case letters, or the symbols #, &, *, $ and % in telex messages.

Also, do not put “$$$” (three successive $s) in the middle of a TX message, but at

the end. The communication line is automatically disconnected when this string is

detected.

then remove the disk.
