Function and Keypad Keys
Top Components: Function and Keypad Keys
1 | Function keys (12) | Perform system and application |
|
| tasks. For example, in Windows and |
|
| many applications, pressing F1 opens |
|
| a Help file. When combined with the |
|
| Fn key, the function keys F2 through |
|
| F4 and F7 through F12 perform |
|
| additional tasks as hotkeys.* |
|
|
|
2 | Fn key | Combines with other keys to perform |
|
| system tasks. For example, pressing |
|
| the Fn+F7 hotkeys decreases screen |
|
| brightness and pressing the Fn+F8 |
|
| hotkeys increases screen brightness. |
|
|
|
3 | Keypad keys (15)* | Can be used like the keys on an |
|
| external numeric keypad. |
*For more information about using hotkeys or keypad keys, see the Hardware Guide, Chapter 2, “Pointing Devices and Keyboard,” on the Documentation Library CD.”
