4-4 Using Your NEC Versa
Cursor Control keys — Cursor control keys let you
position the cursor on the screen where you want. On the
screen, the cursor is a blinking underline, block, or
vertical bar depending on the application. The cursor
indicates where the next text typed is inserted.
When combined with the
Fn
key, the cursor control ar-
rows also let you control LCD contrast and brightness
as follows:
Fn-
↑
increases LCD brightness.
Fn-
↓
decreases LCD brightness.
Fn-
→
increases LCD contrast.
Fn-
←
decreases LCD contrast.
Typewriter keys — The typewriter keys (also called
alphanumeric keys) are used to enter text and characters.
Keys that have blue printing on them behave differently
when combined with control keys or
Fn
.
Numeric Keypad — Pressing
Fn-NumLock
on the
keyboard activates the numeric keypad numbers and
functions printed in blue on top of the keys.
The keypad lets you type numbers and mathematical op-
erands (+, –) as you would on a calculator. The keypad
is ideal for entering long lists of numbers.
When you press Num Lock again, the keys revert to
their normal functions as typewriter keys.
To use the functions printed on the front of the keys,
press
Fn
and the key. (These functions are not available
when NumLock is enabled.)
