In FrameMaker, by default, the Page Up/Down keys move a page up or down.
Is it possible that you are interested in a key that moves a screen up/down?

FrameMaker's internal command names are listed in the cmds.cfg file
in the fminit/configui folder.

See http://www.microtype.com/resources/fmkeys.pdf for an article 
on how to customize the FrameMaker keyboard.

For Windows users: http://www.microtype.com/resources/customui.cfg 
includes definitions for all shortcuts which are described in the 
chart on the last page of the article, so that you can have a set 
of many useful shortcuts instantly (just place this file in the 
fminit/configui folder). 
(users of FrameMaker on other platforms can adapt the customui.cfg
for their own needs).

The above-mentioned customui.cfg includes many shortcuts for various 
commands and special characters which are otherwise only available 
as escape key commands.

My favorites:
F2 - default paragraph font 
F3 - repeat last find 
F4 - repeat last paragraph command 
F5 - repeat last character command 
F11 - select area with same character format 
F12 - next screen 
Alt-F12 - previous screen
Table navigation commands are implemented as Apps-arrows.
