SPARCbook Portable Workstation User Guide
While the numeric-keyboard mode is active, pressing and holding the
Shift
key causes some of the keypad keys to function as cursor and
screen control keys. The character for each key, while in keypad mode
with the
Shift
key pressed, is printed on the key’s front surface, as
shown in Figure 3-8
Adjusting the keyboard angle
The keyboard angle is adjusted by releasing the legs on the underside of
your SPARCbook which are illustrated in Figure 3-3 on page 3-6.
Note
Releasing the legs aids system cooling by allowing air to circulate beneath the
base casting.This ensures more reliabl operation in warmer climates.
•
Release the legs by pressing them towards the outside of the
case. They pop out of their recesses into position.
•
To return the legs to their storage position, press them back into
the recesses where they click into place.
