Technical Information 1-9
The notebook’s keyboard also features an embedded editing keypad, which offers an op-
tional method for editing and moving within documents. The embedded editing keys are
color coded in blue and embedded on the front side of the key caps. To engage the editing
keys, first press the
Fn + Pad|Lock
key combination and then press the Num Lock key.
When the embedded editing keys are operational, the Pad Lock status icon is activated
while the Num Lock status icon is off. To return to normal keyboard operation, press the
Fn + Pad|Lock
key combination again. If both the Pad Lock and the Num Lock status
icons are activated, the embedded numeric keypad takes precedence.
You will also find two retaining latches just above the keyboard panel. These latches release
the keyboard to give you easy access to the inside of the notebook in performing mainte-
nance and upgrades.
Trackball
In front of the keyboard panel, just right at the center of the palm rest typing surface, is the
Trackball pointing device. The button below and to the left of the trackball is configured (by
default) as the left button you normally click on the mouse while the button to the right of
the trackball is configured as the right button. Moving the pointer on the screen is done by
rolling the ball with your finger and directing the pointer to where you want to go. The
Trackball is compatible with the standard PS/2 mouse and can be activated using the normal
DOS or Windows IBM or PS/2 mouse driver.
