More about the keyboard
Enhanced Function Keys
The Enhanced Function Keys shown on page 5 are controlled by your PC
computer’s setup. Therefore, most keys do not require the drivers to be installed.
However, driver installation is recommended.
To enable the Enhanced Function Keys on the ViewSonic Office Keyboard,
press the “F” key. The F Lock LED lights up. To disable the Enhanced Function
Keys, press the F key again. The F Lock LED turns off. The F key toggles
between enable/disable the Enhanced Function Keys.
Function keys already serve as short cuts to some MS applications. But, the “F”
key on theViewSonic Office Keyboard adds more functions when using Word,
Excel, Power Point, etc. MS Office 97 or later is recommended.
The Reply (F9) and the Forward (F10) function keys do not support MS Outlook
97. The Task Pane key (F12) only supports Office XP.
Office Application Keys
For all Office Application Keys to work properly, be sure to install the drivers
from the ViewSonic CD Wizard.
Internet Keys
Use these hot keys when logged onto the Internet on Windows Me or 2000: for
example, Email, Back, Forward, Stop, My Favorites, etc. The Internet keys do
not require the driver installation when running Windows Me/2000/XP but is
recommended.
Application Keys
Most of the Applications Keys function without installing the drivers. Driver
installation is required to enable the calculator key.
The Power Off and Sleep hot keys function properly when your PC system and
peripherals support and enable ACPI power management on your system.
However, activating the Power Off key depends on your computer hardware
setup.
The Log Off key is useful where there are several users share one system or
network at the same time. Be sure to save files and close all applications before

Office Keyboard supports older systems like Windows 95, 98, and enables the
Back/Forward keys and the Directional Scroll Keys.
