USING THE KEYBOARD
Your Fujitsu LifeBook has an integral 87-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.
■
Numeric keypad
■
Cursor keys
■
Function keys
■
Windows keys
NUMERIC KEYPAD
Certain keys on the keyboard perform dual functions as
both standard character keys and numeric keypad keys.
NumLk can be activated by pressing the [NumLk] keys.
Turning off the NumLk feature is done the same way.
Once this feature is activated you can enter numerals 0
through 9, perform addition ( + ), subtraction ( - ),
multiplication ( * ), or division ( / ), and enter decimal
points ( . ) using the keys designated as ten-key function
keys. The keys in the numeric keypad are marked on the
front edge of the key to indicate their secondary functions.
WINDOWS KEYS
Your LifeBook has three Windows keys, consisting of
two Start keys and an Application key. The two Start
keys display the Start menu. This button functions the
same as your on-screen Start menu button. The Applica-
tion key functions the same as your right mouse button
and displays shortcut menus for the selected item.
(Please refer to your Windows documentation for addi-
tional information regarding the Windows keys.)
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
Explorer, it moves the “focus” (selects the next item up,
down, left, or right).
