Table 32. Keyboard Command Bar
Key Option Description
Enter Execute Command The Enter key is used to activate sub-menus when the selected feature is a sub-menu, or
to display a pick list if a selected option has a value field, or to select a sub-field for multi-
valued features like time and date. If a pick list is displayed, the Enter key will undo the
pick list, and allow another selection in the parent menu.
ESC Exit The ESC key provides a mechanism for backing out of any field. This key will undo the
pressing of the Enter key. When the ESC key is pressed while editing any field or
selecting features of a menu, the parent menu is re-entered.
When the ESC key is pressed in any sub-menu, the parent menu is re-entered. When the
ESC key is pressed in any major menu, the exit confirmation window is displayed and the
user is asked whether changes can be discarded. If “No” is selected and the Enter key is
pressed, or if the ESC key is pressed, the user is returned to where they were before ESC
was pressed without affecting any existing any settings. If “Yes” is selected and the Enter
key is pressed, setup is exited and the BIOS continues with POST.
