USING THE KEYBOARD

Your LifeBook has an integral 83-key keyboard. The keys
perform all the standard functions of a 101-key
keyboard, including the Windows keys and other special
function keys. This section describes the following keys.
(Figure 2-11)
Numeric keypad: Your LifeBook allows certain keys to
serve dual purposes, both as standard characters and
as numeric and mathematical keys. The ability to
toggle between the standard character and numerical
keys is controlled through the [NumLk] key.
Cursor keys: Your keyboard contains four arrow
keys for moving the cursor or insertion point to the
right, left, up, or down within windows, applications
and documents.
Function keys: The keys labeled [F1] through [F12],
are used in conjunction with the n][Fn] key to pro-
duce special actions that vary depending on what pro-
gram is running.
Windows keys: These keys work with your Windows
operating system and function the same as the
onscreen Start menu button, or the right button on
your pointing device.

both standard character keys and numeric keypad keys.

WINDOWS KEYS

Your LifeBook has three Windows keys: two Start keys
and an Application key. The two Start keys display the
Start menu. This button functions the same as your
onscreen Start menu button. The Application key func-
tions the same as your right mouse button and displays
shortcut menus for the selected item. (Please refer to
your Windows documentation for additional infor-
mation regarding the Windows keys.) (Figure 2-11)

CURSOR KEYS

The cursor keys are the four arrow keys on the keyboard
which allow you to move the cursor up, down, left and
right in applications. In programs such as Windows

down, left, or right). (Figure 2-11)
