Alternate Configuration
The workstation comes with an alternate insert that you may use for these six re-
lengendable keys. This alternate insert replaces the PC control key labels with function
key labels. Your unit is shipped with batch files (see Batch Utility Mode in Chapter 5)
that you can use with the keypad utility to re-map the keys.
Function and Alpha Modes
The
F
/
A
key is unique to the 3408KP and 3410KP units. When you press and hold this
key, the keypad switches to alpha mode. This allows you to access the alpha characters
A-Z, as well as punctuation symbols on 3410KP units (as noted in the blue letters located
in the bottom right-hand corner of the keys).
Note
On 3408KP units, the default setting for alpha characters is uppercase. If
you want to use lowercase alpha characters, you must reprogram the
keypads using the keypad utility (refer to Chapter 5 for more detailed in-
formation).
When the
F
/
A
key it is not being pressed, the keypads are in function mode (as noted in
the white letters located in the top left-hand corner of the keys).
Note
On 3408KP units, you cannot access the
CTRL
,
SHIFT
,
INS
,
ALT
,
TAB
,
and
DEL
keys in alpha mode. This means that you cannot use these keys in
combination with alpha keys (for example, you cannot use the
CTRL
+
C
key combination).
