Sample numeric overlay
Using the overlay to type numeric data
The keys with the numbers on their right front are the
numeric overlay keys.
To turn the numeric overlay on, press
Fn
and
F11
simultaneously. The numeric mode light on the keyboard
indicator panel glows when the numeric overlay is on.
You can still use the overlay keys to type alphabetic
characters while the numeric overlay is on. To do so:
❖
For lowercase letters, hold down
Fn
while you type the
letters.
❖
For uppercase letters, hold down both
Fn
and
Shift
while
you type the letters.
To disable the numeric overlay, hold down the
Fn
key and
press
F11
again. The numeric mode light on the keyboard
indicator panel goes out.
