Learning the Basics

Using the keyboard

5.375 x 8.375 ver 2.3

of the specially marked keys allows you to emulate a full-size
keyboard.

The emulation Fn key and the Wake up on Keyboard while in
Standby are only functional when using the internal keyboard;
they are not supported when using a USB keyboard.

Your computer’s keyboard has only one

Enter

and one

Ctrl

key.

Most of the time, this does not matter. However, some
programs assign separate functions to the right and left

Ctrl

and

Alt

keys, or to the regular and numeric pad

Enter

keys on

the full-sized keyboard. Using the

Fn

key, you can simulate

these separate keys, as follows:

Press

Fn

and

Ctrl

simultaneously to simulate the

Ctrl

key on

the right side of the enhanced keyboard.

Press

Fn

and

Enter

simultaneously to simulate the

Enter

key

on the numeric pad of the enhanced keyboard.
