Using the Keyboard
The keyboard consists of two types of keys: alphanumeric
character keys and modifier keys. Most keys are self-
explanatory. Some guidelines for using the keyboard
include:
• Press keys one at a time. Pressing two keys
simultaneously produces an error.
• The default keyboard produces numbers; to
produce letters, press the left Alpha Shift and the
appropriate key to produce the letters in purple,
and the right Alpha Shift to produce the letters in
green, as shown below.
