Top-Row Function Keys
On the VT220 terminal’s keyboard, function keys [F1]
through [F5] are used for hold screen, print screen, set-up,
data/talk, and break. The PEN*KEY computer supports
only the break function, which is [Break] on the PEN*KEY
computer’s keyboard.
Function keys [F6] through [F20] are user-defined keys
(UDKs) that have operations assigned to them by the ap-
plication software in use. Refer to your application’s soft-
ware manual for their programmed uses.
Table 7-5 shows how to perform function operations.
