Using the screen keyboard
Introduction
Use the screen keyboard to enter alphanumeric values. If you connect an external keyboard
to an HMI device with a touch screen, the screen keyboard is not displayed. You operate the
screen keyboard like a normal keyboard.
If you touch an operating element with a value, the screen keyboard opens automatically.
Depending on the operating element, either the alphanumeric or numerical screen keyboard
opens.
The appearance and the keyboard layout of the screen keyboard depend on the HMI device
used.
Depending on the configuration in the Control Panel, you can move the screen keyboard or
change its size.
