Function Keys
Your keyboard has eight to twelve function keys. The system uses the first
eight function keys, labeled
F1 through F8.
The boxed labels at the bottom of the display correspond to the function keys
on your keyboard. Function keys are the means by which you command the
system to perform a function within the active menu or window. The label
describes the instruction that is sent to the system when you press the
corresponding function key. The commands, and therefore the labels, that
are available at any given time vary depending on the active menu or
window. Menus and windows may have one or two rows of function key
labels. See Figure 11 on page 12
for an example of a window with function
key labels.
In Figure 11 on page 12
you press F1 to access the Help screen for the
System Monitor window. Also in Figure 11 on page 12
, notice that the label
for
F4 is blank. This indicates that no command is issued if you press the F4
function key. If you press an inactive function key, the system beeps and the
message line either indicates an undefined function key or continues to
display the last message. The function key labels displayed apply only to the
active menu or window.
