[Coco] Coco1, question

If you take a look at a CoCo 1/2 schematic, you'll see that the function
keys simply take advantage of 4 unused spots in the matrix. So they are
simply unused on a standard Coco 1/2 keyboard. Not sure which manufacturer
you have in the photo. HJL or Mark Data? There were others too.

Cheers,
