The Keyboard

Soft keys: Fn key combinations

The Fn (function) is unique to TOSHIBA computers and is used in combination with other keys to form soft keys. Soft keys are key combinations that enable, disable or configure specific features.

Some software may disable or interfere with softkey operations. Softkey settings are not restored by the Resume feature.

A 101key enhanced keyboard layout

The keyboard is designed to provide all the features of the 101key enhanced keyboard, shown in figure 51. The 101/102key enhanced keyboard has a numeric keypad and scroll lock key. It also has additional Enter and Ctrl keys to the right of the main keyboard. Since the keyboard is smaller and has fewer keys, some of the enhanced keyboard functions must be simulated using two keys instead of one on the larger keyboard.

Your software may require you to use keys that the keyboard does not have. Pressing the Fn key and one of the following keys simulates the enhanced keyboard’s functions.

/

Press Fn + F10 or Fn + F11 to access the integrated keypad. When activated, the keys with grey markings on the side face become numeric keypad keys (Fn + F11) or cursor control keys (Fn + F10). Refer to the Keypad overlay section in this Chapter for more information on how to operate these keys. The power on default for both settings is off.

Press Fn + F12 (ScrLock) to lock the cursor on a specific line. The power on default is off.
