Data Bank
The Data Bank Mode lets you store up to 60
records, each containing a name, telephone
number, e-mail address, and date of birth.
Records are automatically sorted based on the
characters of the name. You can recall records by
scrolling through them on the display.
Instead of an e-mail address, you can use Data
Bank Mode memory to store addresses, mobile
phone numbers, URLs, etc.
See Sort Table for details on how the
watch sorts records.
All of the operations in this section are
performed in the Data Bank Mode, which you
enter by pressing C.
See Data Communication for information
about exchanging Data Bank records.
