Hi! I've bought a new wireless keyboard Pavilion 600, and I have a laptop, Elitebook 850 G8.

How can I switch FN function(fn lock) so I don't have to press FN every time I need the F-key?

I tried this to switch in the Bios configurations. 

But it works only for the laptop keyboard.

How can I turn off on the external one?

hi
unfortunately the only possible solutions currently are software, or hardware replacement
There is a solution, but that is to block the key, and you may break the keyboard
Unfortunately either this is not suitable or user feedback
