If you are using the touchscreen, you can either tap the Windows icon at the bottom left of
the screen, or press [FN/BLUE] [.] (period) to display the
Start Menu
, and then tap on the
desired application.
Modifier Key Indicators
[SHIFT], [CTRL], [ALT], [FN/BLUE] and [FN/ORANGE] are modifier keys that when
pressed, are displayed in the taskbar to indicate that they are active. If a modifier key is
locked ‘on’, it is displayed in
uppercase
characters. For example, if the [FN/BLUE] key is
locked on, it is displayed as
BLUE KEY
in the taskbar. A locked modifier key remains
active until it is pressed again to unlock or turn it off.
If a modifier key has been pressed but is not locked on, it is displayed in the taskbar in
low-
ercase
characters – for example,
blue key
. It will remain active only until the next key is
pressed at which point, the modifier key is turned off.
Battery Gauge
The battery shaped icon displayed in the taskbar provides a visual indication of the remain-
ing battery power. The icon acts as a meter that is either full, at three-quarter level, half,
quarter level or empty.
When the battery level is low – approximately 15 minutes from empty – a warning window
pops up. When the battery power is completely depleted, a final warning window indicates
that NEO will be powered down.
If NEO is using external AC power, an AC icon is displayed in the taskbar.
Note: The locking function of the modifier keys can be set up so that pressing one of these
keys
once
will lock the key ‘on’. They can also be set up so that they must be pressed
twice to be locked ‘on’. Refer to “Keyboard One Shot Modes” on page 83
for details.
