ЙЦУКЕН (JCUKEN) is the standard Russian layout, named after its first six letters. The 33 Cyrillic letters fill every letter key plus the punctuation keys on the right: Х Ъ right of P, Ж Э right of L, Б Ю on the comma and period keys, and Ё on the top-left key. Full stop and comma move to the key left of the right Shift. The number row keeps its digits but the shifted symbols differ: " № ; % : ? * ( ). Russian keyboards are ANSI-shaped and almost always dual-printed, which is how this page draws them.
Every key lights up whether Russian or English input is active, because the tester tracks the physical key. Type through all rows and check the six punctuation-position letters on the right, which are the ones most often skipped. Then hold Shift on the number row for № and the Russian symbol set. The record bar above the keyboard shows the actual character you typed, so you can also see at a glance which input language is on.
The system is in English mode. Switch with Alt+Shift, Win+Space or Ctrl+Space depending on your OS; the hardware is fine. If the keyboard is a laptop without Cyrillic legends, this page doubles as a printed reference for where each Russian letter sits.
