Appendix A: PAC Mate Commands

Section Contents

In the PAC Mate QX400 you have the option of using the CAPS LOCK Key and the INSERT Key as the JAWS Key or you can elect to use only the INSERT Key as the JAWS Key. The default option is set to use both as the JAWS Key. To change this option, open the Keyboard Settings dialog found under Settings in the Start Menu.
