KEYBOARD FUNCTIONS

RACKMUX-V15-x

The keyboard on the RACKMUX-V15-x (and RACKMUX–V17-x) is a standard condensed Windows format. To reduce the keyboard size, some keys have been assigned multiple functions, accessible via the "Fn" key. This section will describe which keys have multiple functions and how to enable them. Use the LEDs to know what special features are enabled.

Function Key Operation

The Function (“Fn”) key provides several special functions on the RACKMUX keyboard, including:

ƒenabling otherwise standard keyboard keys to be used as the keys of a numeric keypad

ƒenabling multi-function keys to change operation

To turn ON (lock) the Function key, press the “Fn” key twice quickly (double-click). The “Fn” LED will illuminate.

To turn OFF (unlock) the Function key, press the “Fn” key twice quickly again. The “Fn” LED will turn OFF.

Note: The "Fn" key will also operate similar to the shift key (with only momentary effect). Press and hold the "Fn" key prior to pressing the special function key. The "Fn" key will remain active as long as it is depressed.
