Zone 2 - Cursor Control and Editing Keys -- This zone contains editing keys
(INSERT and DELETE), location keys (NEXT SCRN and PREV SCRN), and cursor
control keys (movement of cursor in indicated direction: up, down, right,
and le ft).
Zone 3 - Word Processing/Special Function Keys -- Across the top of the
keyboard are 16 Word Processing/Special Function keys. When using the word
processing so ft ware, the Word Processing Fun ct ion keys simplify document
creation and revision. For example, the CENTER key automatically centers a
line of text, the MOVE key allows any amount of text to be moved within a
document, and the REPLC key allows a character-defined sequence to be
replaced with another within a document.
Zone 4 - Numeric Keypad (Opt ion al) -- The numeric zone is designed 1 ike a
standard 10-key numeric pad for rapid entry of numeric characters. The
numeric keys are grouped here for convenience. Digits may be entered by
using the numeric keys in either the numeric or the alphanumeric zone.
Other features include automatic or on demand underlining and character
accenting on non-English versions of the keyboard. All keys on the
keyboard will repeat if held down. The microprocessor in the workstation
automatically adjusts the repeat key rate according to the rate at which
characters are being echoed to the CRT. The keyboard clicker sounds each
time the repeated character is transmitted. Thus, both aural and visual
evidence of the repeated character are given to the user. The repeating
key is particularly useful for moving the cursor when editing.
Special features of the 5536 keyboard include:
o Keyboard Clicker -- The clicker provides an audio response when a key is
sufficiently pressed. The volume of the keyboard clicker may be
adjusted.
o N-key Rollover This feature permits a new key to be pressed and
output to the workstation while a previous key is still being held
down. This process can continue for any number of keys; each new key
pressed takes precedence over any keys already held down. The N-key
rollover feature helps eliminate errors during high-speed typing.
o Workstation Alarm -- The alarm provides audio feedback to indicate the
occurrence of errors or specia 1 conditions, e.g., pressing an uncle fined
special function key, typing beyond a specified field, displaying an
error message. The volume of this audio alarm may also be adjusted.
