Special keys

Lock keys
The keyboard has three lock keys which you can toggle on and off.
Lock key
Caps Lock
Num Lock (Fn-F11)
Scroll Lock (Fn-F12)
Embedded numeric keypad
The embedded numeric keypad functions like a desktop numeric keypad. It is indicated by small characters
located on the upper right corner of the keycaps. To simplify the keyboard legend, cursor-control key symbols
are not printed on the keys.
Chapter 1
When Caps Lock is on, all alphabetic characters typed are in uppercase.
When Num Lock is on, the embedded keypad is in numeric mode. The keys
function as a calculator (complete with the arithmetic operators ), -, *, and /). Use
this mode when you need to do a lot of numeric data entry. A better solution would
be to connect an external keypad.
When Scroll Lock is on, the screen moves one line up or down when you press the
up or down arrow keys respectively. Scroll Lock does not work with some
applications.
