Description

Caps Lock

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

Num Lock (Fn-
F11)

When Num Lock is on, the embedded 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. A better solution would
be to connect an external keypad.

Scroll Lock (Fn-
F12)

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