In these keyboards, I believe that the Fn key is handled entirely by the processor
inside the keyboard. The resulting output of the modified key is a keystroke sequence
rather like a macro, or it is a proprietary keycode that is handled by a utility
that you must load to the computer, depending on the keyboard. The bottom line is
that the Fn key itself cannot be remapped since it is never transmitted to the computer.
