Lock key

Description

Caps Lock

When Caps Lock is on, all alphabetic characters typed
are in uppercase.

Num Lock

When Num Lock is on, the keypad is in numeric mode.
The keys function as a calculator (complete with the
arithmetic operators +, -, *, and /). Use this mode
when you need to do a lot of numeric data entry.

Scroll Lock

(<Fn> + <F12>)

When Scroll Lock is on, text on the screen moves one
line up or down when you press the up or down arrow
keys. Scroll Lock does not work with most
applications.

Hotkeys

The computer employs hotkeys or key combinations to access most of the
computer's controls like screen brightness and volume output.
