Keyboard Options
The 2nd, ALT, CTRL and Shift keys (when present) are sticky keys. The Keyboard LEDs (page 3-13) identify the active sticky
modifier mode state of the keyboard.The Thor VM1 has an integrated keypad with five programmable keys and an available
external keyboard.
64-Key QWERTY Keyboard
The Thor VM1 has a QWERTY keyboard, available with a standard overlay, an IBM 3270 overlay or an IBM 5250 overlay.
Because the keyboard only has 64 keys, all functions are not visible (or printed on the keyboard). Therefore the Thor
VM1 keyboard supports what is called hidden keys -- keys that are accessible but not visible on the keyboard.
The keyboard does not have a NumLock indicator or key. NumLock is always On.
The Thor VM1 keyboard keys are backlit.
By default, the keyboard backlight follows the display backlight. When the display backlight is on, the keyboard backlight
is on.
If the display backlight brightness is increased (or decreased) the keyboard backlight brightness is increased (or
decreased).
The keyboard backlight and the display share the same timer, which is configured in the Power Options (page 5-18)
control panel.
