Chapter 3: Getting To Know Your 7535 G2

Modifier Keys

The [BLUE] and [ORANGE] modifier keys provide access to additional keys and system
functions. These functions are colour coded in orange and blue print above the keyboard
keys.
3.3.1

Modifier Keys

The [SHIFT], [CTRL], [ALT], [BLUE] and [ORANGE] keys are modifier keys. Pressing a
modifier key changes the function of the next key pressed. For example, on a 7535 G2 58-
key keyboard, a square bracket is printed in orange print above the [4] key. Pressing the
[ORANGE] key followed by the [4] key displays a square bracket rather than the number 4.
The [SHIFT], [CTRL] and [ALT] keys operate much like a desktop keyboard except that
they are not chorded (two keys held down simultaneously). The modifier key must be
pressed first followed by the key whose function you want modified.

3.3.1.1 Activating Modifier Keys

When a modifier key is pressed once, it is displayed in lowercase letters in the taskbar at the
bottom of the hand-held screen. For example, if the [CTRL] key is pressed, ctrl key is dis-
played at the bottom of the unit screen. Once the next key is pressed, the modifier key
becomes inactive and disappears from the taskbar.
