Using the Keyboards
There are several keyboards available for the system unit. The keyboards have
various keys that enter data and control the cursor location. The keyboards can be
engraved for the languages of different countries.
The functions of each keyboard depend on the software used. The character sets for
the keyboards are contained and explained in the information for your operating
system.
The keyboard is divided into four sections:
Function keys are multipurpose keys and their function is controlled by the
operating system.
Typewriter keys are similar to a standard typewriter. Their function is controlled
by the software.
Control keys move the cursor on the screen and do programmed control
functions. The movement and functions depend upon the application used.
Numeric keypad is arranged like a calculator to help when typing numbers.
