Numeric Keys
Use the numeric keys as you would those on a calculator.
Numeric values are single keystroke operations.
Alphabetic Keys
Your computer provides the full alphabet on both the 41-
and 51-key keyboards. Alphabetic characters are single
keystroke operations with the 51-key keyboard but are two
keystrokes on a 41-key keyboard. Alphabetic characters
can be entered on the 41-key keyboard by using the blue
shift key.
Backspace [ ] Key
Use the backspace key to back the cursor up one character
at a time. Holding this key down causes the cursor to con-
tinuously move backwards until you stop or you run out of
space to move.
Shift Keys
Your hand-held computer has three different "shift" func-
tion keys. These keys temporarily shift the function of the
keyboard. Your keyboard has a green [SHFT] key, a blue
key and a yellow key. The green shift key is a standard
shift key. Both the blue and yellow keys work just like the
shift key, and allow access to different alternate functions.
Your keyboard may have up to three color-coded legends
(words or characters) above some of the keys. The green,
blue, or yellow "shift" keys correspond to those options.
