The operation of each key is shown below. Pressing a key changes the
current operation, illuminates a related annunciator on the display, and
generates a key- click sound (a beep).

operations. Most keys have a
shifted function printed in blue above the
key. To perform a shifted function: first, press Shift (the Shift annunciator
will illuminate). Then, press the key that has the desired label above it.
