Using the 37-Key Keyboard

(A-Z), numbers (0-9), and assorted characters. The keyboard is color-coded to indicate which
modifier key(Alpha-Numeric,
Func
) to press to produce a particular character or action. The
keyboard default is numeric, producing the gray number or white character on that key.
