Using the Programmable Power Keys (PPK)
Your Sony computer comes with technology that allows you to get to
your favorite applications easily. Each Programmable Power Key (PPK)
on your VAIO Smart Convertible Keyboard comes programmed to
launch a preset application with a single press of the key. If you wish, you
can use the PPK Setup software to change the Programmable Power
Keys’ preset functions. The PPK Setup software also allows you to set
your computer’s internal timer to launch certain applications
automatically.
The Programmable Power Keys are located at the top of your keyboard,
and are numbered P1 through P6. The keys work even when the
computer is turned off. Pressing one turns on the computer and launches
the preset application.
The six Programmable Power Keys come to you preprogrammed to
perform the functions listed in the table below.
