Caps Lock vs. Shift Lock
The caps lock function is not the same as the shift lock function on a common
typewriter. Both eliminate the need to reach for SHIFT to type an uppercase (capital)
letter, but they differ in their effect on other keys.
The Keyboard Shift Function
You already know that holding down SHIFT and pressing 1 gives you the
exclamation mark.
Whilo
SHIFT
is pressed, the SHIFT indicator appears on the screen. The indicator
disappears as soon as you release
SHIFT.
The Shift Lock Function
If you press SHIFT LOCK, the SHIFT indicator is displayed permanently, and all the
characters you type are uppercase (A = “A”, 1 s: “!”). To release this mode, press
SHIFT.
The Caps Lock Function
When you need to type long strings of both capital letters
and
numbers, such as
“ACCT. NO. BC104”, press CODE + CAPS. The CAPS indicator will appear on the
screen to tell you that the keyboard is locked in capital mode (A = “A", but 1 = “
1
”). To
release lh‘s mode, press
CODE + CAPS
again.

With this word processor, you will be able to split the screen in half and work
simultaneously with two documents. This is useful, for instance, when you are
working in one document and need to reference a second document.
