CP55 Mobile Computer Reference Manual
1.5. KEYPAD
The mobile computer has a physical keypad and a touchscreen to receive user’s input.
Among the two, the touchscreen provides more intuitiveness in interacting with the device.
This section shows how to input text using physical keypad and on-screen keyboard. To
know how to operate the mobile computer using the touchscreen, see Touch Control .
1.5.1. PHYSICAL KEYPAD
The physical keypad on the front of the mobile computer bears much resemblance to laptop
or PC keyboards. It is either a numeric type or a QWERTY one, each wedging a set of
“enhanced keys” along the top and a set of character keys at the lower half. Both keypads
support multi-key operation, which normally requires two keys hit simultaneously, one of
which is a modifier key.
As for entering text, the numeric and QWERTY keypad are equally capable of entering
numbers, letters, symbols and punctuation marks. Both also receive supplementary
backlight along with the screen.

ENHANCED KEYS
Enhanced keys are arranged along the top of the physical keypad, separate from the
character keys. Use these “enhanced keys” to launch actions on the mobile computer and
OS, operate the active application, or switch the physical keypad between input modes.
Navigation keys are included also to move the caret in a text input field, and to select
between applications on the desktop.
