Using an External Numeric Keypad
✎
The embedded numeric keypad cannot be turned on while an
optional external numeric keypad is connected to the notebook.
Most keys on most external numeric keypads function differently
when num lock mode is on than when num lock mode is off. For
example:
■ When num lock mode is on, most keypad keys type numbers.
■ When num lock mode is off, most keypad keys function like
the arrow, page up, or page down keys.
Turning Num Lock Mode On and Off
As
You Work
To turn num lock mode on or off on an external numeric keypad
as you work, press the
num lk key on the external keypad, not on
the notebook.
■ When an external numeric keypad is turned on and is in num
lock mode, the num lock light on the notebook is on.
■ When an external numeric keypad is turned off or is turned on
with num lock mode turned off, the num lock light on the
notebook is off.
