COMPONENTS AND FUNCTIONS

Keyboard

The keyboard is functionally equivalent to a full size desktop keyboard.

A sample key layout is shown below.

The Numeric Keypad

The numeric keypad functions like an electronic calculator. It is embedded in the

main keyboard, with the numeric figures printed on the upper right of their

respective keys. The keypad has keys for the digits 0 through 9, the decimal point

( . ), addition ( + ), subtraction ( - ), multiplication ( * ), and division ( / ).

To activate the keypad, press the Num Lock key. The 15 keys shown in the figure

switch from alphabetic keys to numeric keys. Press Num Lock again switches the

keys back to alphabetic.
