Description
ALT
The alt (alternate) key is used with other keys to perform special tasks.
Pressing CTRL+ALT+DEL twice resets the computer, processing stops and
the computer attempts to restart the
operating system
.
ALT GR
The ALT GR key, a special function key found on the 82-key international
keyboard, when pressed and held, allows you to use characters in the bottom
right of a three character key.
BACKSPACE
The BACKSPACE key, sometimes represented on the keyboard as a left
arrow, moves the cursor one position to the left. The character to the left of the
cursor is erased.
CAPS LOCK
Pressing the CAPS LOCK key one time locks keys A through Z in the UPPER
CASE position. Pressing the CAPS LOCK key again returns the letters to
lower case. While in the upper case mode, pressing the SHIFT key results in
lowercase characters when entered. You still have to use the SHIFT key to
display characters located on the upper portion of the keyboard. For example,
press SHIFT+8 to type an asterisk (*), even when the CAPS LOCK key is
activated.
The CAPS LOCK activity indicator is on when the keyboard is in CAPS
LOCK mode. This indicator can be found in the windows tray at the lower
right corner of the screen.
