Description

Caps Lock

When Caps Lock is on, all alphabetic characters typed are in uppercase.

 

 

Num Lock

When Num Lock is on, the embedded keypad is in numeric mode. The keys

<Fn> + <F11>

function as a calculator (complete with the arithmetic operators +, -, *, and /).

 

Use this mode when doing a lot of numeric data entry. A better solution would

 

be to connect an external keypad.

 

 

Scroll Lock

When Scroll Lock is on, the screen moves one line up or down when the up or

<Fn> + <F12>

down arrow keys are pressed respectively. Scroll Lock does not work with

 

some applications.

 

 

The embedded numeric keypad functions like a desktop numeric keypad. It is indicated by small characters located on the upper right corner of the key caps. To simplify the keyboard legend, cursor-control key symbols are not printed on the keys. (Table 1-8)
