Arrow / Cursor Key Function
The
arrow
keys (also called the cursor movement keys) are used to scroll through the
active display or to move the cursor around the screen.
2nd Key Function
The
2nd
key is used to activate the 2
nd
functions of the keypad. Printed above many keys
are yellow characters that represent the 2
nd
function of that key. Using the 2
nd
key activates the
second key function. Note that the 2
nd
key only stays active for one keystroke. Each time you need
to use the 2
nd
function you must press the 2
nd
key. To cancel a 2
nd
function before pressing another
key, press the 2
nd
key again. When the 2
nd
function is active, the 2
nd
icon stays on the screen.
For example:
•
Full Alpha-Numeric : 2nd plus the I key initiates INSERT mode.
•
Numeric-Alpha : 2
nd
plus the SPC key initiates ALT mode.
CTRL Key Function
The
CTRL
key enables the control functions of the keypad. This function is similar to a
regular keyboard’s Control key. Note that the Ctrl key only stays active for one keystroke. Each
time you need to use a Ctrl function, you need to press the Ctrl key before pressing the function
key. When the Ctrl function is active, the Ctrl icon stays on the screen.
ALT Key Function
Note:
Full alpha-numeric keypad only.
The
ALT
key enables the alternate functions of the keypad. This function is similar to a
regular keyboard’s Alt key. Note that the Alt key only stays active for one keystroke. Each time
you need to use an alternate function, you need to press the Alt key before pressing the function
key. When the Alt function is active, the Alt icon stays on the screen.
SHFT Key Function
The
Shft
key enables the shifted functions of the keypad. This function is similar to a
regular keyboard’s Shift key. Note that the Shift key only stays active for one keystroke. Each
time you need to use a Shifted function, you need to press the Shft key before pressing the
function key. When the Shft function is active, the Shft icon stays on the screen.
When the Shft key is pressed the next key is determined by the major key legends, i.e., the alpha
keys display lower case letters when the CAPs key is On and function keys enable the shifted
function key.
