The Keyboard

Function keys: F1 … F12

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

your keyboard. These keys function differently from other 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.

Refer to 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.

Emulating keys on enhanced keyboard

101-key enhanced keyboard layout

The keyboard is designed to provide all the features of the 101-key

enhanced keyboard. The 101/102-key enhanced keyboard has a numeric

keypad and scroll lock key. It also has additional Enter and Ctrl keys to the

right of the main keyboard. Since the keyboard is smaller and has fewer

keys, some of the enhanced keyboard functions must be simulated using

two keys instead of one on the larger keyboard.
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.

Some software may disable or interfere with soft-key operations.

Soft-key settings are not restored by the Standby feature.
