Connecting Other External Devices
Using a mouse
Making your external keyboard emulate the Fn key
An external keyboard does not have the
Satellite M20 computer's built-in keyboard. If you use the
computer's hot keys or have set up key combinations in Fn-esse
you'll probably miss these features when using an external
keyboard. Do not worry: you can use a key combination on the
external keyboard to emulate the
combination through the Windows Control Panel Toshiba
HWSetup icon. For more information about Hardware Setup, see
"Toshiba Hardware Setup" on page
Using a mouse
You may want to use a mouse instead of the computer's built-in
pointing device, the AccuPoint II. You can use a serial mouse, PS/
2-compatible mouse, or a USB mouse.
HINT: You can only connect one PS/2 device at a time,
unless you purchase an optional Y-cable. Connecting a
Y-cable to the computer's PS/2 port allows you to
connect a PS/2-compatible mouse and a PS/2-
compatible keyboard simultaneously. Alternatively, you
can connect a USB keyboard and mouse to the USB
ports.
TECHNICAL NOTE: A serial mouse disables the
AccuPoint II. With a PS/2 mouse, you can choose to
have the AccuPoint II active at the same time.
