Using the Modifier Keys

All three keyboards feature the standard PC keyboard modifier keys, Shift (SFT), Alt, and Control (CTRL) as well as Blue and Red modifier keys.

Name & Key

Function

 

 

Shift

The SFT key modifies only the next key pressed; it must be pressed before each key

you wish to modify. SFT toggles the keyboard between uppercase alphabet mode and

 

 

lowercase alphabet mode.

 

Use SFT toggle Caps Lock on and off by double-tapping it or by pressing SFT + the

 

Red modifier key. When Caps Lock is toggled on, characters are uppercase; when

 

toggled off, characters are lowercase.

 

 

CTRL and ALT

Functions of the ALT and CTRL keys depend on the software application in use and the

 

keys pressed in combination with each.

 

 

Blue and Red

The blue and red keys are used in combination with other keys to type special

 

characters and perform system functions. Each key modifies only the next key pressed.

 

The overlay of each keyboard is color-coded to indicate the character typed or function

 

performed when specific keys are pressed immediately after the blue or red modifier

 

key.
