Colored Hot Keys
The following defines the colored hot keys on the Notebook PC’s keyboard. The colored commands can only
be accessed by first pressing and holding the function key while pressing a key with a colored command.
NOTE: Hot Keys work only on the Notebook PC’s own keyboard and not on any exter-
nally connected keyboards.
Suspend: Places the Notebook PC in suspend mode (either Save-to-RAM or Save-to-
Disk depending on BIOS setup). This is not the same as “stand by” in MS Windows.
Open Sun: Increases the display brightness. If the display appears too dark, use
this command.
Solid Sun: Decreases the display brightness. If the display appears to bright, use
this command.
LCD: Toggles the display panel ON and OFF. This is a quick way to hide your
work.

ternal monitor in this series: Notebook PC LCD -> External Monitor -> Both

the volume.
Speaker Up Icon: Toggles the volume increase in Windows Volume Control. This
function electronically raises the audio output signal.
Speaker Down Icon: Toggles the volume decrease in Windows Volume Control.
This function electronically lowers the audio output.
Pause: In Windows, holding the “Windows” key while sending a “Pause” com-
mand will launch “System Properties”. In DOS, “Pause” command alone will pause
a stream of data or command. Press another key (not all keys work) to resume.

use a larger portion of the keyboard for number entering.
