Function keys are those keys that perform specific functions and usually have the name of the function they perform.

Backlight

The Backlight key turns the keyboard backlight on and off.

Backspace
(BKSP)

The Backspace function is performed by pressing the Red modifier key + the left arrow.
Backspace moves the cursor back one space and deletes each time the key combina-
tion is pressed. If you are typing text, a character is deleted each time you backspace.

Delete
(DEL)

The delete function is performed by tapping the Blue + ESC keys. This function deletes
the next character forward each time the key combination is pressed.

Escape

The Escape key performs a cancel action.

OK

The OK key functions as an Enter key.

Power

The suspend/resume function is performed by pressing the Blue + Backlight keys.
Pressing this key combination puts the terminal in suspend mode and wakes it from
suspend mode.

SCAN

The SCAN key activates the scan and wakes the terminals from suspend mode. Its
position allows convenient one-handed image-taking and/or bar code decoding.

Space (SP)

The Space function is performed by pressing the Red modifier key + right arrow.

The Space key moves the cursor one space forward. If you are typing text, it moves the
text one space forward as well.

Tab

The Tab key moves the cursor to the next tab stop or the next field (on a form). Blue +
Tab acts as a backtab that allows you to move back one field.
