Understanding the Key Clicks

You communicate your intended action to your hand-held

computer through pressing a key on the keyboard. Your

computer communicates back to you through an audible

response, a “key click.”
Each time you press a key, your computer lets you know

with a single audible key click. Pressing certain keys causes

two consecutive key clicks that occur one after another so

quickly that they almost sound like a single beep. These

two consecutive key clicks occur because your computer au-

tomatically “presses” the shift key for you in these cases.

EXAMPLE:

An example of consecutive key clicks is the same as what happens

when you use the “shift” key on a PC. These keys include a colon(:),

double quote(”), and percent sign(%).

If you enter an incorrect action or keystroke, you hear a

“beep.” An error “beep” is longer than a key click. An error

“beep” is intended to get your attention and let you know

an error occurred.
