`
`You'll Also Want to Take the Time to Plan Your
`Installation Location:
`
`Is it near your television, an electrical outlet,
`and a modular telephone jack?
`You'll want to keep your SCEPTRE terminal
`control unit in a spot where it can be easily
`hooked up t© your television, your telephone
`line, and a grounded, three:-wire AC outlet.
`Plan, too, on keeping the terminal's power
`supply transformer in a secure spot (on a table
`top, for instance).

`Pre-Installation Checklist
`
`Ybu'll also want a clear, unobstructed path be(cid:173)
`tween the front of the control unit and your
`keypad. The wireless keypad uses. harmless,
`invisible, infrared light to send your signals to
`the control unit. As long as there's nothing
`in the way, ym1'1l be able to operate your
`SCEPTRE Videotex Terminal from as far as 15
`feet aw~
`
`Does It provide adequate ventilation 7
`WheB you select your control unit's installation·
`location, make sure there's enough room to·
`leave a few inches of space above the unit.
`Keep your SCEPTRE terminal control unit on a
`flat, hard surface. Keeping it on upholstery or
`carpeting can hamper ventilation.
`
`Is the electrical outlet closest to your televi(cid:173)
`sion the grounded, three-wire type?
`If you don't have a grounded three-wire out(cid:173)
`let, you'll need a three-wire to two-wfre
`converter. You can get one at any hardware or
`electronics store. If you use a converter, con(cid:173)
`nect its green wire to your outlet wall plate's
`center screw.
`
`I _,.,
`
`_)
`
`..)
`
`Do you have a modular telephone jack?
`If you already have a~telephone plugged into
`the modular jack you plan to use, don't worry:
`You'll be able to connect your telephone by
`plugging it into the modular extension phone
`jack built into the back of the SCEPTRE termi(cid:173)
`nal control unit.
`
`If you have an older, four-prong jack, you'll
`. need a modular jack adapter.
`
`If you have no modular jacks, your place of
`purchase has a variety of Customer Conven(cid:173)
`ience Products you can install. Ask for an
`RJ-llC jack .

`
`Now that you have completed the installation
`of your SCEPTRE videotex terminal, we will
`acquaint you with its basic functions~
`First, let's take a look at the keypad for your
`SCEPTRE terminal.
`Much of, the keypad is similar to a typewriter
`keyboard.
`Let's look first at the top row of keys which are
`called Command Keys.
`These keys make it possible for you to perform
`certain tasks with a single key stroke.
`1. Mode Key
`Press to see the list of your terminal's five
`working modes.
`2. Phone Key
`Press to have your terminal access your tele(cid:173)
`phone line. Press again to hang up.
`3. Data Key
`Press to interact with a videotex service after it
`has been dialed.
`
`7
`
`4. Auto Key
`Press in conjunction with alphanumeric keys
`to have a sequence of instructions (such as a
`dialing sequence) which are stored in your
`terminal directory executed automatically.
`5. Continue (Cont) Key
`Press tocontinue any stored sequence of
`instructions which has been temporarily
`interrupted.
`6. Select Key
`Press to ready your terminal to store typed
`information. Press to step through setup
`parameters.
`7. Clear Key
`Press to erase entire sections of information
`that you have typed in while connected to a
`videotex service.
`8. Next Key
`Press to move the cursor (the display screen's
`place marker) to the next line or heading.
`
`PMC Exhibit 2204
`Apple v. PMC
`IPR2016-01520
`Page 8
`
`

`

`The next row of keys are Function Keys.
`9. Function Keys (fl - F8)
`The videotex services you subscribe to will tell
`you what functions, if any, these keys will
`serve. You'll use them to interact with the
`videotex services. (The videotex service may
`supply you with a template labelling these keys'
`functions which you can fit over your keypad.)
`10. Alphanumeric Keys
`You'll use these keys to type letters, numbers
`and punctuation onto your television screen.
`For upper case letters, press either of the
`[Shift] keys in combination with a letter key.
`Notice that - unlike a typewriter -
`the num(cid:173)
`ber keys include two "upper case" symbols.
`You'll press [Shift] for the red symbols. [Ctrl] for
`the blue symbols.
`11. Space Bar
`Press to skip a' space in typing.
`12. Color Control Keys
`You can use these keys after you've accessed
`your videotex service to step through your
`terminal's 16 color options. Press [Frgnd] (fore(cid:173)
`ground) to change the color of new characters
`displayed on the screen. Press [Bkgnd] to
`change the background color for new charac(cid:173)
`ters. (Note: Not all videotex services offer the
`ability to alter colors with these keys.)
`13. Send Key
`Press to transmit your typed information to the
`videotex service. (Note: Not all videotex ser(cid:173)
`vices use the send key to transmit data.)
`14. Backspace (Bksp) Key
`Press to back up the cursor one character at a
`time. A blank space replaces the character
`backspaced over.
`15. Return Key
`Press to move the cursor to the beginning of
`the next line. Works like a carriage return key.
`(Note: Some videotex services use the return
`key to transmit data.)
`16. Control (Ctrl) Key
`Press in combination with specific keys to type
`any blue symbol. (See Additional Features,
`page 16;, for information on the use of the
`control key in advanced editing.)
`17. Shift Keys
`Press in combination with a letter (or punctua(cid:173)
`tion) key to type upper case. Press for any red
`symbol. You'll also use this key to store the
`keystrokes required for the automatic dialing
`feature.
`

`
`Getting Started
`
`To turn on your SCEPTRE Videotex Terminal:
`
`1. Turn on your television.
`2. Turn your television dial to your SCEPTRE
`terminal channel (3 or 4).
`3. Set your antenna switch to "Terminal."
`4. Depress your control unit's Rower button.
`5. You'll see your terminal's first operating
`"mode."
`This screen is the first one you'll see whenever
`you turn on your SCEPTRE terminal. It means
`your terminal is in its data base access mode,
`that is, ready to dial your videotex services.
`The data base access mode allows you to dial
`the videotex service manually or, should you
`choose, the SCEPTRE terminal will dial the
`videotex service automatically if the videotex
`service telephone number has been entered
`in the SCEPTRE terminal directory.
`Once your videotex services are entered in
`your SCEPTRE terminal directory, the services'
`"key names" will be displayed in your data
`base access screen. The spaces numbered
`1 through 5 are reserved for your videotex
`services's key names.
`In addition to the data base access mode, your
`SCEPTRE terminal provides four other modes
`-the directory, terminal setuR, screen adjust(cid:173)
`ment and terminal test modes.

`Dialing Method: Your SCEPTRE terminal has
`been preset at the factory to use a pulse dial(cid:173)
`ing method. Whether your telephone line
`has pulse (or rotary) or touch-tone dialing, it
`can handle voice or data calls dialed with
`the pulse method. If your telephone line uses
`touch-tone dialing, you will find terminal
`dialing faster if you set its Dialing Method
`parameter to touch-tone.
`(NOTE: If your telephone line uses pulse dial(cid:173)
`ing - and you subscribe to a videotex service
`that requires touch-tone transmission after ini(cid:173)
`tial connection - you can switch from pulse
`dialing to touch-tone by pressing ITJ on your
`keypad. In effect, you can manually override
`your Dialing Method parameter setting.)
