Numeric Keys
Use the numeric keys as you would those on a calculator.
Numeric values are single keystroke operations.
Alphabetic Keys
Your computer provides the full alphabet on both the 41-
and 51-key keyboards. Alphabetic characters are single
keystroke operations with the 51-key keyboard but are two
keystrokes on a 41-key keyboard. Alphabetic characters can
be entered on the 41-key keyboard by using the blue shift
key.
Backspace [ ]Key
Use the backspace key to back the cursor up one character
at a time. Holding this key down causes the c ursor to con-
tinuously move backwards until you stop or you run out of
space to m ove.
Shift Keys
Your computer has three different “shift” function keys.
These keys temporarily shift the function of the keyboard.
Your keyboard has a green [SHFT] key, a blue key and a
yellow key. The green shift key is a standard shift key. Both
the blue and yellow keys work just like the shift key, and
allow access to different alternate functions. Your keyboard
may have up to three color-coded legends (words or charac-
ters) above some of the keys. The green, blue, or yellow
“shift” keys correspond to those options.
