Chapter 3:Keyboards – Operating Instructions
Keyboard Layouts
3.1 Keyboard Layouts
Depending on the type of terminal you use – hand-held or vehicle-mount – and the
type of keyboard chosen, keyboard operation varies slightly.
Operating instructions in this chapter are described section by section according to
keyboard type.
3.1.1 7035 Hand-Held Terminal Keyboards
7035 hand-helds are available with three keyboard layouts – 44-key, 56-key and
36-key. The function of each of these keyboards is described in the following
sections:
• 44-key – Page 57
• 56-key – Page 59
• 36-key – Page 61
3.1.2 8255 And 8260 Vehicle-Mount Terminal Keyboards
Vehicle-mount terminals are available in three different alphabetic layouts –
QWERTY, ABC and AZERTY.
In addition, all these keyboard layouts are available in two keyboard types –
‘F1 to F6’ and ‘F1 to ‘F10’. The ‘F1 To F6’ keyboard type is equipped with 6
yellow function keys that are directly accessible along the top row of the keyboard.
The ‘F1 To F10’ keyboard type is equipped with 10 yellow function keys across the
top of the keyboard. Depending on which keyboard type you are using, accessing
the extended function keys and the macro keys along with the <CTRL>, <ALT> and
<SHIFT> keys differ slightly. These differences are clearly outlined in each
keyboard section.
Important: Make certain that the appropriate keyboard type – ‘F1 to F6’
or ‘F1 to ‘F10’ – is selected in the “Keyboard Type” parameter
(see “Keyboard Type – Vehicle-Mounts Only” on page 130).
The vehicle-mount keyboards are described in the following sections:
• QWERTY – Page 67
• ABC – Page 73
• AZERTY – Page 77
