on my HP OmniStudio X 27 inch All-in-One Desktop PC 27-cs0000 (9T0D1AV) I see these 3 keys on my keyboard:
BLOC PAUSA CLEAR
If I press BLOC I hear a bip, if I click on PAUSA or CLEAR nothing happens.
Please tell me what these keys are for?
Thanks

Hi @passegua123, Welcome to HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
The keys you're referring to, BLOC, PAUSA, and CLEAR, are likely related to specific functions on your keyboard:
BLOC: This is short for "Block" or "Scroll Lock." When you press this key, it typically toggles the scroll lock function on and off. The beep you hear indicates that the function is being activated or deactivated.
PAUSA: This is the "Pause" key. It's used to pause the screen output in some programs, especially in command-line interfaces or during boot sequences. However, in many modern applications, this key might not have a noticeable effect.
CLEAR: This key is often used to clear the current input or reset certain functions. In some contexts, it might act similarly to the "Num Lock" key, clearing the numeric keypad's input.
I hope this helps.
Take care and have a good day.
