Using an External Numeric Keypad

Most keys on most external keypads function differently
according to whether num lock mode is on or off. For example:

When num lock is on, most keypad keys type numbers.
■
When num lock is off, most keypad keys function like the
arrow, page up, or page down keys.
When num lock on an external keypad is turned on, the num
lock light on the notebook is turned on. When num lock on an
external keypad is turned off, the num lock light on the notebook
is turned off.
While an external keypad is connected, the embedded numeric
keypad cannot be turned on.
