Getting Started
NOTE: The red arrows are illustrated here for your reference. They are not labeled on
the keyboard as shown here.
Microsoft Windows Keys
There are two special Windows keys on the keyboard as described below.
The key with the Windows Logo activates the Start menu located at the bottom left of
the Windows desktop.
The other key, that looks like a Windows menu with a small cursor, activates the proper-
ties menu and is equivalent to pressing the right mouse button on a Windows object.
Keyboard as a Numeric Keypad
The numeric keypad is embedded in the keyboard and
consists of 15 keys that make number intensive input
more convenient. These dual-purpose keys are labeled in
orange on the key caps. Numeric assignments are located
at the upper right hand corner of each key as shown in the
figure. When the numeric keypad is engaged by pressing [
Fn
]
[
Ins/Num LK
], the number lock LED lights up. If an external
keyboard is connected, pressing the [
Ins/Num LK
] on the
external keyboard enables/disables the NumLock on both
keyboards simultaneously. To disable the numeric keypad while keeping the keypad on an
external keyboard activated, press the [
Fn
][
Ins/Num LK
] keys on the Notebook PC.
Keyboard as Cursors
The keyboard can be used as cursors while Number
Lock is ON or OFF in order to increase navigation ease
while entering numeric data in spreadsheets or similar
applications.
With Number Lock OFF, press [
Fn
] and one of the cursor keys
shown below. For example [
Fn
][
8
] for up, [
Fn
][K] for down, [
Fn
]
[
U
] for left, and [
Fn
][
O
] for right.
With Number Lock ON, use [
Shift
] and one of the cursor keys shown below. For example [
Shift
]
[
8
] for up, [
Shift
][
K
] for down, [
Shift
][
U
] for left, and [
Shift
][
O
] for right.
