The Keys
The Arrow Keys
The Arrow keys move the cursor around the screen in the direction of the arrow –
up, down, left and right. The cursor is the flashing box or underline character that
indicates where the next character you type will appear.
The [BKSP/DEL] Key
The [BKSP] key (sometimes referred to as destructive backspace) moves the cursor
one character to the left, erasing the incorrectly entered key stroke.
The [DEL] key ([BLUE] [BKSP]) erases the character at the cursor position.
The [CTRL] And [ALT] Key
The [CTRL] and [ALT] keys modify the function of the next key pressed and are
application dependent.
The [TAB] Key
Typically, the [TAB] key moves the cursor to the next field to the right or
downward.
The [ESC] Key
Generally, this key is used as a keyboard shortcut to close the current menu, dialog
box or activity and return to the previous one.
The [SPACE] Key
Pressing this key inserts a blank space between characters. In a Windows dialog
box, pressing the [SPACE] key enables or disables a checkbox.
The [SCAN] Key
Pressing the [SCAN] key – the yellow key with the star-burst scan symbol on it –
activates the scanner beam while pressed. For units that do not have internal
scanners, this key can be remapped for another use.
