EXAMPLE:
Pressing the green [SHFT] key and then the [DEL] key produces a
dot instead of deleting the character at the cursor. The nearby keys
on that row [CTRL], [ALT], and [ESC] still behave normally when the
green [SHFT] is pressed first.
This is why annunciators are absolutely crucial, since you
must only press one ke y at a time. The annunciators tell
you which shift key you are pressing and holding down. Re-
fer to page 1-14 for locations and meanings of display an-
nunciators.
Pressing more than one shift key along with another key
may not always produce the result you expected. This hap-
pens as a result:
"
Of the sequence of keys pressed, and
"
The mode your computer is in at the time the key is
pressed.
There is no problem when you press the green [SHFT] and
the yellow key. But if you press the [SHFT] and either the
blue or yellow shift key, you usually experience different
results than you expect.
Summary of Shift Key Combinations
"
Green [SHFT] and either blue or yellow shift key and
another keystroke, no confusion
"
Green [SHFT] and blue and yellow shift key along
with another key, confusion can occur
This is similar to your PC, if the NUM LOCK or CAPS
LOCK is engaged then pressing shift and a key usually pro-
duces something other than what you want. Therefore, just
like with a PC, to get the result you want you have to
change a mode or the sequence you press the k eys.
