The keyboard doesn't send a character to the computer it sends a code which the computer then interprets to derive the character using the selected keyboard layout. I can't remember the codes but if you strike the top left character key it will produce a code which a US/UK keyboard layout will interpret as Q but a French layout will interpret as A, the next one to it will be W for US and Z for French, etc. Shifted 3 produces # in US and £ in UK.
