2.3.2 The Keys

The [BLUE] And [ORANGE] Keys

The [BLUE] and [ORANGE] modifier keys provide access to addi- tional symbols and keys. These additional symbols and keys are col- our coded in blue and orange print above the keyboard keys.

Press the [BLUE] key to access functions or characters dis- played in blue print on the keyboard. Press the [ORANGE] key to access functions or characters displayed in orange print on the keyboard.

The [SHIFT/CAPS] Key

The [SHIFT/CAPS] key is used to display uppercase alpha charac- ters. Pressing [BLUE][SHIFT] turns the [CAPS] key on so that all alpha characters are printed in uppercase until the [BLUE][SHIFT] sequence is pressed again.

The Arrow Keys

The Arrow keys move the cursor around the screen in the direction of the arrow – up, down, left and right. The cursor is the flashing box or underline character that indicates where the next character you type will appear.

The [INS] Key

The [INS] key inserts a character at the cursor position.

The [DEL] Key

The [DEL] key erases the character at the cursor position.

The [BKSP] Key

The [BKSP] key (sometimes referred to as destructive backspace) moves the cursor one character to the left, erasing the incorrectly entered key stroke.
