Connecting Other External Devices

Using an external keyboard
If you prefer to use a full-size keyboard, you can attach one to your
computer. The computer’s PS/2 mouse/keyboard port supports
any PS/2-compatible keyboard.
HINT: You can only connect one PS/2 device at a time,
unless you purchase an optional Y-cable. Connecting a
Y-cable to the computer’s PS/2 port allows you to connect
a PS/2-compatible mouse and a PS/2-compatible keyboard
simultaneously.
Windows 98 Second Edition gives functionality to your USB
port. If you have a USB mouse or keyboard, you can connect
multiple external devices to one another, with one of them
connected to the USB port.
Making your external keyboard emulate the Fn key
An external keyboard doesn’t have the
Fn
key contained on the
Tecra computer’s built-in keyboard. If you use the computer’s hot
keys or have set up key combinations in Fn-esse
®
, you’ll probably
miss these features when using an external keyboard. Don’t worry:
you can use a key combination on the external keyboard to
emulate the
Fn
key. You can set up this key combination through
the Windows Control Panel Toshiba Hardware Setup option icon.
For more information about Fn-esse, see “Fn-esse” on page 141.
In TSETUP, this option is called Ext. Keyboard “Fn.” To find out
how to set the Fn Key Emulation option using TSETUP, see
“TSETUP” on page 151.
Using a mouse
You may want to use a mouse instead of the computer’s built-in
pointing device, the AccuPoint II. You can use a serial mouse or a
PS/2-compatible mouse.
