How the Ctrl, Alt, and Shift Keys Work
The JANUS keypad does not have an actual key for every character and
function available. You use the Ctrl, Alt, and Shift keys to access characters or
perform functions that do not have an actual key on the keypad. You also use
the Shift key to type uppercase alphabetic characters.
The Ctrl, Alt, and Shift keys work differently on the JANUS keypad than on a
regular PC keyboard. On a PC keyboard, you press and hold key combinations
that require the Ctrl, Alt, or Shift keys. On the reader’s keypad, you do not
hold down these keys.
When you press , , or , the key is
held in a buffer until you press another
key. The icon appears on the reader’s
display to remind you that the key is being
held in the buffer. When you press another
key, the key combination is entered into
the reader and the icon disappears.

If you are programming or using applications that require a right and left Ctrl,
Alt, or Shift key, you can access these keys on the reader’s keypad. To enter a
right Ctrl, Alt, or Shift key, press , , or on the keypad. To enter a left
Ctrl, Alt, or Shift key, use the key combination from the Reader Keypad Charts
in Appendix B.
