number of items stored in the Open Memory Area are displayed.  To see the
number of items in the Secret Memory Area, you must perform the above
operation after accessing the Secret Memory Area.

HOW MEMORY CAPACITY IS CALCULATED

You can store up to 4,096 bytes of data in memory.  There is no limit on
the amount of memory you can use in each mode, but the total amount of data
stored is 4,096 bytes.  The following shows how many bytes the data in each
mode takes up.  One character (each new line operation counts as a
character also) takes up one byte.

    Mode                       Bytes per Data Item

Telephone Directory            (name) + (telephone number) +
                               (address, etc.) + 15

Schedule                       (description) + 12

Calendar                       6 bytes per calendar that contains
                               highlighted dates

Data Memo                      (memo title) + (memo text) + 3

Examples:

Telephone Directory data only

    When all items use 10 characters for the name, 12 characters for the
    phone number, and 16 characters for the address, you can store
    approximately 70 items.

Schedule data only.

    When all items use 20 characters, you can store approximately 120
    items.

Data Memo data only

    When all items use 10 characters for the memo title and 10 characters
    for the memo text, you can store approximately 170 items.
