Control key chart

Some application programs use control key codes for decimal values O-27.The table below gives you the proper values. The Control Key column indicates that you press the control key at the same time you press the key for the letter or symbol in the column. For example, you press the control key and A at the same time to send the value 1.

Some application programs that use this system cannot use control- @, and many programs use the control keys for other purposes.
