Using the Modifier Keys
Modifier keys are those keys that modify the next key pressed. They are used on combination with the keys that follow to perform
functions or type special characters. In addition to the standard ALT key, the Dolphin 7900 terminal has Blue and Red modifier
keys and a color-coded overlay.
Name Key Function

The functions performed by the ALT key depends on the software application in use and

The blue and red keys are used in combination with other keys to type special characters
and perform system functions. Each key modifies only the next key pressed.
The overlay of each keyboard is color-coded to indicate the character typed or function
performed when specific keys are pressed immediately after the blue or red modifier key.
