with access to BIOS Setup.
System settings that are not configurable, because of security settings or configuration limits, are grayed out
and are not accessible.
Table 3. BIOS Setup: Keyboard Commands
Key Action Description
<Enter> Execute Command
The <Enter> key is used to:
• Activate submenus when the selected feature is a submenu, or
• Display a pick list if a selected option has a value field, or
• Select a subfield for multi-valued features like time and date.
If a pick list is displayed, the <Enter> key selects the currently highlighted item,
closes the pick list, and returns the focus to the parent menu.
<Esc> Exit
The <Esc> key provides a mechanism for backing out of any field. When the
<Esc> key is pressed while editing any field or selecting features of a menu, the
BIOS returns to the parent menu.
When the <Esc> key is pressed in any submenu, the BIOS returns to the parent
menu.
↑ Select Item
The up arrow is used to select the previous value in a pick list, or the previous
option in a menu item’s option list. The selected item must then be activated by
pressing the <Enter> key.
↓ Select Item
The down arrow is used to select the next value in a menu item’s option list, or a
value field’s pick list. The selected item must then be activated by pressing the
<Enter> key.
<Tab> Select Field
The <Tab> key is used to move between fields. For example, <Tab> can be used
to move from hours to minutes in the time item in the main menu.
− Change Value
The minus key on the keypad is used to change the value of the current item to
the previous value. This key scrolls through the values in the associated pick list
without displaying the full list.
+ Change Value
The plus key on the keypad is used to change the value of the current menu item
to the next value. This key scrolls through the values in the associated pick list
without displaying the full list. On 106-key Japanese keyboards, the plus key has
a different scan code than the plus key on the other keyboards but have the
same effect.

Pressing the <F9> key causes the following to display:
Load default configuration?
Press ‘Y’ to confirm, ‘N’ / ‘ESC’ to ignore
If <Y> key is pressed, all BIOS fields are set to their default values. If <N> or
<Esc> key is pressed, the user is returned to where they were before <F9> was
pressed without affecting any existing field values.
<F10> Save and Exit
Pressing the <F10> key causes the following message to display:
Save configuration changes and exit?
Press ‘Y’ to confirm, ‘N’ / ‘ESC’ to ignore
If <Y> key is pressed, all changes are saved, and BIOS exits the Setup utility. If
<N> or <Esc> key is pressed, the user is returned to where they were before
<F10> was pressed without affecting any existing field values.
