The number pad is used for rapid input of figures and nu-
merical operations. The number pad is not designed for nu-
merical touch-typing.
Pressing the
<NUM> key activates the number pad, illumi-
nating the NUM LOCK indicator light. If the NUM LOCK
indicator is not lit, then the cursor pad is active and the key
functions are the same as for the control pad.
The
Print Screen key allows a printout (hardcopy) of the
screen content on a printer (where connected). This does not
apply, however, to all characters, and no graphics are output
to the printer. In addition this key only works under MS-DOS
with the corresponding setting. Under Windows the screen is
copied as a graphic to the clipboard.
The
Break key allows data output on-screen to be halted
and restarted by the operation of any other key. This is used
in the MS-DOS operating system if you wish to output text
from the screen that is longer than one screen page. If the
<
Break > key is operated when the Ctrl key is pressed, then
commands or programs currently being executed, such as
screen output, will be interrupted.
The
Scroll lock key has no function in the MS-DOS operating
system. Some Windows software uses this key to freeze the
cursor at a certain position. If the key is pressed once, then
the Scroll lock function is activated. The corresponding Display
lights. The function is switched off by pressing the key again.
