The Keyboard
Keypad overlay
Your computer's keyboard does not have an independent numeric keypad,
but its numeric keypad overlay functions like one.
The keys in the center of the keyboard with gray letters make up the
numeric keypad overlay. The overlay provides the same functions as the
numeric keypad on the 101/102-key enhanced keyboard described
previously.
Turning on the overlays
The numeric keypad overlay can be used for numeric data input.
Numeric mode
To turn on the Numeric mode, press Fn + F11. The Numeric mode indicator
lights. Now try numeric data entry using the keys in the following figure.
Press Fn + F11 again to turn off the overlay.
Temporarily using normal keyboard (overlay on)
While using the overlay, you can temporarily access the normal keyboard
without turning off the overlay:
1. Hold Fn and press any other key. All keys will operate as if the overlay
were off.
2. Type upper-case characters by holding Fn + Shift and pressing a
character key.
3. Release Fn to continue using the overlay.
