Hidden Shift Functions
When I was giving a quick review of the Classpad’s fx-CP400
last March (http://edspi31415.blogspot.com/2016/03/a-quick-look-at-casio-classpad-fx-cp400.html),
I mentioned that I would have liked the basic scientific functions assigned and
listed on the keyboard. It turns out
that most of the keys have shifted functions. The reason why they are not listed is because
the shifted functions can be customized.
Here are the default shift settings:

To assign (or clear) keyboard assignments:
1. Press Menu
2. Select System (2nd
page)
3. On the top row of
icons, select the (Shift) icon. (first
set, farthest right)
4. Select a key. To assign a function, select the box next to
[ Set ]. Call up the keyboard if
needed. When are you ready, press [ Set
].
5. You can clear a
key by pressing [ Clear ].
6. To return to default settings, press [ Default ].
7. When you are done
with the keyboard settings, press [ OK ].
8. Test your settings
by going to the Main screen.
This is also shown on pg. 247 of the Casio Classpad II
manual.
Here is my customized keyboard. I made a keyboard on an index card and keep
it with the Classpad. It is great
because we can easily call up commonly used functions without having to hunt
through the soft keyboard. For mine, I
just kept the defaults and added some other basics to the missing keys (they
are in green for reference):
