Description

Caps Lock

When Caps Lock is on, all alphabetic characters

 

typed are in uppercase.

 

 

Num Lock

When Num Lock is on, the embedded keypad is in

(Fn-F11)

numeric mode. The keys function as a calculator

 

(complete with the arithmetic operators +, -, *,

 

and /). Use this mode when you need to do a lot

 

of numeric data entry. A better solution would be

 

to connect an external keypad.
