Most of the keys on these keyboards operate much like a desktop computer. If a key or key function is not consistent with the PC keyboard, the differences are noted.

3.4.1Modifier Keys
The [SHIFT], [CTRL], [ALT], [BLUE] ad [ORANGE] keys are modifier keys. Pressing a modifier key changes the function of the next key pressed. For example, a square bracket is printed in orange print above the [4] key. Pressing the [ORANGE] key followed by the [4] key displays a square bracket rather than the number 4.
The [SHIFT], [CTRL] and [ALT] keys operate much like a desktop keyboard except that they are not chorded (two keys held down simultaneously). The modifier key must be pressed first followed by the key whose function you want modified.
3.4.1.1Activating Modifier Keys
When a modifier key is pressed once, it is displayed in lowercase letters in the taskbar at the bottom of the 8515 screen. For example, if the [CTRL] key is pressed, ctrl key is dis- played at the bottom of the unit screen. Once another key is pressed, the modifier key becomes inactive and disappears from the taskbar.
