The d-pad simulation keys simulate the four-way navigation control found on most mainstream PDA or windows mobile phone devices. They perform the functions down, up, next, and back. These keystrokes are designed to be used in unsupported applications where you must use the JAWS cursor to navigate screens and activate controls. They are also used in applications that contain a reading area where Reader mode is active so you can scroll the screen to access additional text. When pressed, these keystrokes are passed directly to the application and perform what ever function is specified by the particular application, as if you performed the command using an actual d-pad control. For instance, in one program, the Next and Back buttons might switch between different windows, while in another, they may move between pages in a text view area. The following table lists the d-pad simulation keystrokes.
