Is there a function key lock or something like that on a Mac?

For instance, I have a program that has a shortcut for Shift+F11, but of course on my MacBook Pro that's a volume button so I have to hit Fn+Shift+F11. Is there a way to avoid hitting the function key all the time? Not a big deal, just curious.

Settings -> Keyboard -> "Use all F1, F2 etc keys as standard function keys"

"If you're using an external keyboard for a mac, check the external keyboard for a f-key lock button. On my logitech it is on the escape key.

(I just spent half an hour figuring it out!)"
