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 cursor to con-
tinuously move backwards until you stop or you run out of
space to move.
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.
