The ToggleKeys Feature

People with visual impairments may not be able to see the lights on the keyboard that indicate CAPS LOCK, NUM LOCK and SCROLL LOCK status. ToggleKeys provides a solution to this by emitting a tone whenever these keys are pressed. If ToggleKeys is enabled, when you press one of these keys and it turns on, you will hear a high beep. When you press one of these keys and it turns off, you will hear a low beep. ToggleKeys is turned on from the keyboard by pressing the NUM LOCK key and holding it down for about 5 seconds. When ToggleKeys turns on, you will hear an up-siren if sound is enabled. You turn ToggleKeys off from the keyboard the same way, just hold the NUM LOCK key for about 5 seconds and you will hear a down-siren. ToggleKeys can also be turned on or off from the ToggleKeys dialog box under the "Adjust" menu. ToggleKeys will also function with some keyboards which do not have the status indicator lights for the CAPS LOCK, NUM LOCK and SCROLL LOCK keys. The audible low and high beeps can be very useful for all operators when using this style of keyboard.
