Using the Keyboard Dock
NOTE: The Keyboard Dock can be purchased separately. Specific
models come with the Keyboard Dock.
Using the Keyboard
Your keyboard has all the standard functions of a full-sized computer keyboard plus
an Fn key added for specific functions.
The standard functions of the keyboard can be further divided into four major
categories:
 Typewriter keys
 Cursor-control keys
 Numeric keys
 Function keys
Typewriter Keys
Typewriter keys are similar to the keys on a typewriter. Several keys are added
such as the Ctrl, Alt, Esc, and lock keys for special purposes.
The Control (Ctrl) / Alternate (Alt) key is normally used in combination with other
keys for program-specific functions. The Escape (Esc) key is usually used for
stopping a process. Examples are exiting a program and canceling a command.
The function depends on the program you are using.
Cursor-Control Keys
Cursor-control keys are generally used for moving and editing purposes.
NOTE: The word “cursor” refers to the indicator on the screen
that lets you know exactly where on your screen anything you
type will appear. It can take the form of a vertical or
horizontal line, a block, or one of many other shapes.
