Keyboard lock? How do you do that? Never heard of it.

Hi Vicky,

The keyboard lock does, as you say, lock the keyboard. It helps keep you from accidently exiting gps or executing commands you don't want while walking
or whatever. I usually lock the keyboard when I have the gps repeating my position every 12 seconds or whatever repeat value I set. I find it very helpful
for that.

I'm using the PK, although that might not make a difference in this case.
But, what is the purpose of the keyboard lock? Oh, I know it locks the
keyboard; but, are you supposed to be able to perform or, maybe more likely,
hear any GPS commands while it is locked? Although I saw this keystroke in
the command list, I didn't see any mention of it in the manual.
