A Tour of the Notebook’s Keyboard

The Notebook’s keyboard uses a standard QWERTY layout with the
addition of special function keys and an embedded numeric keypad for
number intensive data entry. Your keyboard supports Windows by
incorporating the two Windows specific keys. With the two Windows
keys you will be able to access and take advantage of many of the
timesaving features of Windows software.
The function keys (F1-F12) on the top row of the keyboard, serve
different purposes and carry out different tasks depending on the
application you are running.
The cursor (arrow) keys (which are all located in the lower right corner of
your keyboard) and the [PgUp], [PgDn], [Home] and [End] keys (which
are located along the right edge of the keyboard) allow you to move the
active cursor of the computer to various locations on the screen or within
the document.
The embedded numeric keypad consists of 15 keys that make number
intensive input more convenient. Like the [Num Lock] key, these keys are
labeled in blue on the keycaps. Numeric assignments are located at the
upper right of each key.
When the numeric keypad is engaged, the NumLock icon will appear in
the System Window. The keypad is activated by pressing the [Fn] +
[NumLk] key. If an external keyboard is connected, pressing the
NumLock key on either the Notebook or external keyboard will
enable/disable NumLock of both keyboards in unison.
To disable the Notebook numeric keypad while keeping the keypad on an
external keyboard activated, use the [Fn] + [NumLk] hot key on the
Notebook keyboard.
