Desktop-style Keyboard

Your P100 computer comes with a “desktop-style” keyboard built into it.

This means it is full-sized and features a full set of numeric function keys

(also known as calculator keys) on the right-hand side. Unlike other

notebooks computers with smaller keyboards, there is no ’Numeric Mode’

or any numeric keyboard overlay.

Generating ASCII characters

Not all ASCII characters can be generated using normal keyboard

operation. But, you can generate these characters using their ASCII codes.
1. Hold down Alt.
2. Using the numeric function keys, type the ASCII code.
3. Release Alt, and the ASCII character appears on the display screen.
