The
Cursor
Keypad
The four cursor keys are grouped
in
a small keypad located on the bottom right
side
of
the keyboard, between the
typewriter
area
and the
numeric
keypad.
These keys control the movement
of
the cursor (up, down, left, right) on the
screen display. The direction
in
which each key moves the cursor
is
indicated by
the direction
of
the arrow displayed on the top
of
the individual key.
The Numeric Keypad
The Numeric Keypad
is
located to the far right
of
the keyboard. The keys are
arranged
in
a calculator layout to facilitate numeric data entry. The numeric and
arithmetic symbol keys on the keypad act just like the numeric and arithmetic
symbol keys
in
the typewriter area
of
the keyboard. You use the ENTER key on
the numeric keypad just as you use the RETURN key on the main
keyboard-
that
is
, to transmit data and commands
to
the computer.
The Function Keys
The Function Keys, located at the top
of
the keyboard and numbered
Fl
through
FlO, are program-controlled keys.
