THE KEYBOARD
Soft keys: Fn key combinations
The keyboard is designed to provide all the features of the 101-key enhanced
keyboard, shown in figure 5-1. The 101/102-key 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 gray markings on the bottom edge 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.
Press Fn + Enter to simulate Enter on the enhanced keyboard’s numeric keypad.
Press Fn + Ctrl to simulate the enhanced keyboard’s right Ctrl key.
