Epson 500 Series User Manual

Although the keyboard on the ActionNote has only 84 keys

(85 on the international version), its still provides all the functions

of a full-size (102-key) keyboard. For example, a full-size keybard

has a separate numeric keypad you can use for both numberic entry

and cursor control. The ActicnNote has an embedded numeric

keypad that you access using the Fn and Shift keys in the same

way you use the Shift key to enter uppercase characters. (Using

the embedded numberic keypad is described later in this section.)

Note

The keyboard on the ActionNote is available with different

layouts for different languages. Special keyboards are available

in some countries. Additionally, you can use MS-DOS to

reassign the layout of your keyboard to duplicate that of

another country. See your MS-DOS manual for more

information.

This section describes how to use the Fn, F11, and F12 keys and

the embedded numberic keypad on your keyboard.

The Fn key activates the F11 and F12 keys and controls functions

on the embedded numberic keypad. The F11 and F12 keys perform

special functions within application programs. You activate these

keys by using Fn with the F1 and F2 keys. Hold down Fn and

press F1 to produce F11; hold down Fn and press F2 to produce

F12.
