The Keyboard

F1 ... F12 function keys

The function keys, not to be confused with Fn, are the 12 keys at the top of 

your keyboard. These keys are dark gray, but function differently from the 

other dark gray keys.

F1 through F12 are called function keys because they execute 

programmed functions when pressed. Used in combination with the Fn key, 

keys marked with icons execute specific functions on the computer. See 

the section, Soft keys: Fn key combinations, in this chapter. The function 

executed by individual keys depends on the software you are using.

Soft keys: Fn key combinations

The Fn (function) is unique to TOSHIBA computers and is used in 

combination with other keys to form soft keys. Soft keys are key 

combinations that enable, disable or configure specific features.

Emulation keys

Your software may require you to use keys that the keyboard does not 

have. Pressing the Fn key and one of the following keys simulates the 

enhanced keyboard's functions.

Press Fn + F10 or Fn + F11 to access the integrated keypad. When 

activated, the gray keys with white numbers become numeric keypad keys 

(Fn + F11) or cursor control keys (Fn + F10). Refer to the Keypad overlay 

section in this chapter for more information on how to operate these keys. 

The power on default for both settings is off.

Press Fn + F12 (ScrLock) to lock the cursor on a specific line. The power 

on default is off.
