Eh, do you mean, how do you use the arrow keys on the numpad? You can toggle between numbers and arrows/nav commands with the Num Lock key .

And to get F11 and F12 you have to program a makro with the Soarer's converter software.
I put F11 and F12 onto F1 and F2 in combination with <ALT> or <CTRL>.

This is a config file, that "corrects" the 2 ISO-specific keys, maps AltGr to the CapsLock key and assigns F11 and F12 to <CTRL> + <F1> and <CTRL> + <F2>:

Code: Select all

# Soarer Converter's configuration for an IBM Model F XT keyboard.

remapblock

# <>
  BACKSLASH     EUROPE_2

# #'
  BACK_QUOTE    BACKSLASH

# AltGr.
  CAPS_LOCK     RALT

endblock


macroblock

  macro F1 CTRL
    PUSH_META CLEAR_META CTRL
    DELAY 5
    PRESS F11
    POP_ALL_META
  endmacro

  macro F2 CTRL
    PUSH_META CLEAR_META CTRL
    DELAY 5
    PRESS F12
    POP_ALL_META
  endmacro
