3.3.3.2 Locking Modifier Keys
When a modifier key is locked ‘on’, it will remain active until it is pressed again to unlock or turn it off.
To help you identify when a modifier key is locked ‘on’, the key is represented in the shift-state indicator
icon with a black frame around it.

Once a modifier key is unlocked or turned off, it is no longer displayed in the shift-state indicator icon.
3.3.4 The Keys
The [SHIFT] Key
The [SHIFT] key is used to display uppercase alpha characters.
[SHIFT] Key Alpha Keyboards
The [SHIFT] key on the alpha keyboard, represented by an up arrow, is used to display uppercase alpha
characters. To produce an uppercase character:
•Press the [SHIFT] key followed by the letter you want to appear in uppercase.
If you press the [SHIFT] key twice, it is locked ‘on’ essentially acting as a [CAPS] key, displaying uppercase
characters until [SHIFT] is pressed again to turn the [CAPS] function off.

Note: The locking behaviour of the modifier keys can be changed so that, for example, pressing a
modifier key once will lock the key ‘on’. Refer to “OneShots” on page 130 for details.
