The keyboard is divided into four sections:
1. Function keys are multipurpose keys, and their function is controlled by the operating
system.
2. Typewriter keys are similar to those on a standard typewriter. Their function is controlled
by the software.
3. Control keys move the cursor on the screen and do programmed control functions. The
movement and functions depend on the application used.
4. Numeric keypad is arranged like a calculator to help when typing numbers.
All of the keyboards adjust for typing comfort. To tilt the keyboard, pull out the keyboard
legs. The legs snap into position. To decrease the tilt of the keyboard, rotate the keyboard
legs until they snap into the bottom of the keyboard case.
The keyboard cable plugs into the keyboard connector at the rear of the system unit.
Using the Three–Button Mouse
The mouse is a hand–operated locating device. A three–button mouse is available for use
with the system unit. Consult your application publication for the exact use of the
three–button mouse.
You can use the mouse to perform such functions as positioning a cursor, selecting items
from a menu, or moving around in your document much easier and faster than if you used
only the keyboard. The cursor moves exactly as you move the mouse on a flat surface,
such as a desktop.
When you move the mouse around on a flat surface, the cursor moves on the display
screen; the movement changes the position of the cursor.
With the mouse buttons, you can perform functions such as selecting and deselecting
options, extending your selection, or choosing a command. The precise function of your
mouse depends on the software you are using.
The mouse has a cable that plugs into the mouse connector at the rear of the system unit.
