KEYBOARD FUNCTIONS
The keyboard on the RACKMUX-Vxx is a standard condensed Windows format. To reduce the keyboard size, some keys have
been assigned multiple functions, accessible via the "
Fn
" key. This section will describe which keys have multiple functions and
how to enable them. Use the LEDs to know what special features are enabled.
Function Key Operation
The Function (“
Fn
”) key provides several special functions on the RACKMUX keyboard, including:
enabling otherwise standard keyboard keys to be used as the keys of a numeric keypad
enabling multi-function keys to change operation
enabling the “
T
” key to act as a mode key to toggle between USB and PS/2 keyboard/mouse mode
To turn ON (lock) the Function key, press the “
Fn
” key twice quickly (double-click). The “Fn” LED will illuminate.
To turn OFF (unlock) the Function key, press the “
Fn
” key twice quickly again. The “Fn” LED will turn OFF.
Note: The "Fn" key will also operate similar to the shift key (with only momentary effect). Press and hold the "Fn" key
prior to pressing the special function key. The "Fn" key will remain active as long as it is depressed.
