Onscreen Indicators
Modifier Key Indicators
[SHIFT], [CTRL], [ALT], [FN/BLUE] and [FN/ORANGE] are modifier keys that
when pressed, are displayed in the taskbar to indicate that they are active. If a
modifier key is locked ‘on’, it is displayed in uppercase characters. For example, if
the [FN/BLUE] key is locked on, it is displayed as
BLUE KEY in the taskbar. A locked
modifier key remains active until it is pressed again to unlock or turn it off.
If a modifier key has been pressed but is not locked on, it is displayed in the taskbar
in lowercase characters – for example,
blue key. It will remain active only until the next
key is pressed at which point, the modifier key is turned off.
Note: The locking function of the modifier keys can be set up so that pressing
one of these keys once will lock the key ‘on’. They can also be set up so
that they must be pressed twice to be locked ‘on’. Refer to “Keyboard One
Shot Modes” on page 89for details.
Battery Gauge
The battery shaped icon displayed in the taskbar provides a visual indication of the
remaining battery power. The icon acts as a meter that is either full, at three-quarter
level, half, quarter level or empty.
When the battery level is low—approximately 15 minutes from empty—a warning
window pops up. When the battery power is completely depleted, a final warning
window indicates that the WORKABOUT PRO will be powered down.
If the WORKABOUT PRO is using external AC power, an AC icon is displayed in
the taskbar.
Battery Charge
The battery charge icon is displayed in the taskbar when the hand-held battery is
being charged.
