Key Description
@ When Caps Lock is on, all alphabetical characters typed appear in
uppercase.
- When Num Lock is on, the embedded keypad is in numeric mode.
The keys function as a numeric keypad like the one found on standard
PC keyboards (complete with arithmetic operators +, -, *, and /).
Use this mode when you need to do a lot of numeric data entry. A
better solution would be an external keypad. See section 4.3.
- When Scroll Lock is on, the screen moves one line up or down when
you press w or y respectively. Scroll lock does not work with some
applications.
