Embedded keys are the same as a standard keyboard keys but with an additional operation built in.
These functions have been incorporated into other keys in order to reduce the overall footprint of the keyboard and unit size. Unlike other WinBook systems that did incorporate a pop-up status window in the top left corner, the XL does not have this function. The design and operation is different for the unit. The system is still operating in the background despite the lack of video. These modes cycle through and will then repeat themselves after the last mode has been activated.
