Newton Keyboard: Uppercase Keys Don‘t Work

I have a Apple MessagePad with the Newton Keyboard. All the lowercase keys work properly, but not all the uppercase worked. I tried to use the caps lock and the shift key, but they resulted in lowercase characters.
When this happens you should reset your Apple MessagePad. Do not perform a hard reset. If you perform a hard reset any information in the internal memory are lost.

Resetting Your Apple MessagePad
===============================
Note: DO NOT use the pen that came with your Apple MessagePad.
