Besides the usual keys, this keyboard also has extra-dedicated keys, which provide the following ACPI, multimedia and Internet functionality:

ACPI Keys:

Your keyboard has the power management keys that are Power off, Sleep, and Wake up three keys. They are also can be called ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) keys.

As these ACPI keys are performed not completely under Windows NT 4.0, Windows 95 and Windows 98; the KeyMaestro driver provides an option to enable the ACPI keys. When the option is enabled, the driver will take Windows' place to process these keys.

Note: For detailed information, please read the online help by right clicking the mouse on the KeyMaestro Keyboard icon in the Windows task bar and selecting Help.
