Introducing Your TransPort LT

Using the Keyboard

Using the Embedded Numeric Keypad

Your keyboard includes a numeric keypad, which is a group of keys that you can set to type numbers and mathematical symbols, such as the plus sign (Figure 7). A number or symbol on the right corner of each keypad key shows its numeric function.

Press [Num Lock] to turn on the embedded numeric keypad. The numeric

 

functions of the keypad are enabled and the Num Lock light turns on. (See

 

”System Status Lights” on page 29 for the location of the Num Lock light.)

 

While the numeric functions are enabled, you can temporarily return a key to its

 

normal function by pressing [NumLock].

 

To turn the numeric keypad off, press [Num Lock] again. The Num Lock light turns

 

off.

 

 

 

Using Special Function Keys

The [Fn] key activates special functions when it is pressed in combination with

 

another key. Table 1 shows the special key combinations.
