The Keys

The [BKSP/DEL] Key

The [BKSP] key (sometimes referred to as destructive backspace) moves the cursor
one character to the left, erasing the incorrectly entered key stroke.
The [DEL] key ([FN/BLUE] [BKSP]) erases the character at the cursor position.

The [CTRL] And [ALT] Keys

The [CTRL] and [ALT] keys modify the function of the next key pressed and are
application dependent.

The [TAB] Key

Typically, the [TAB] key moves the cursor to the next field to the right or downward.

The [ESC] Key

Generally, this key is used as a keyboard shortcut to close the current menu, dialog
box or activity and return to the previous one.

The [SPACE] Key

Pressing this key inserts a blank space between characters. In a Windows dialog
box, pressing the [SPACE] key enables or disables a checkbox.

The [SCAN] Keys

The WORKABOUT PRO is equipped with a [SCAN] bar located just below the
display and two [SCAN] keys

situated on the left and the right sides of the unit.

[SCAN] keys activate the scanner beam. For units that do not have internal
scanners, these keys can be remapped to serve other functions.

The Function Keys

[F1] to [F10]

Function keys [F1] to [F10] perform special, custom-defined functions. These keys
are accessed by pressing [FN/BLUE] followed by numeric keys [1] to [10]. They
can be used with the Windows Mobile 6 operating system or another application.
Keep in mind that the following function keys are used by the Windows Mobile 6
operating system: [F1] - softkey 1, [F2] - softkey 2, [F6] - volume up, and [F7] -
volume down.
Function keys [F1], [F2], [F3] and [F4] labelled in grey boxes next to the [TAB],
[ALT], [ESC] and [CTRL] keys allow you to remap these keys for your application.
