KEYBOARDS
The KP3700 is a part of a family of Unitech multifunction
keyboards with 104 keys enhanced layout. The KP3700
features re-legendable keys,
integrated Magnetic Stripe
Card Reader (or Bar Code
Slot Reader), and built-in
Bar Code scanning input
port. The keyboards also
feature a minimal footprint
and protection against
damage from liquid spill-
age.
Input Modes
The keyboard has two modes to accept a variety of input devices.
A
card-reader slot
at the upper-left corner of the keyboard provides an enclosure for a built-in
dual-track magnetic card reader (included). Alternatively, this card-reader slot can support a
single-track or triple-track magnetic card reader, or a bar code slot reader.
•
A
DB-9
type squeeze release port at the upper right hand side of the keyboard supports
undecoded bar code scanner and RS232 input. Decoded scanners must be capable of Wand
Emulation (undecoded scanner) output. Wand, CCD, and laser scanners are supported.
•
Of the KP3700’s 104 keys, 92 are programmable and 88 are relegendable.
With Unitech’s
Keyboard Configuration Manager
software, each of the 92 programmable keys
can be easily configured to be modifiable by virtually all the other keyboard keys (not only Shift S,
but also Ctrl S or even LS, for instance) so that each key can represent 101 unique inputs.
Relegending the KP3700’s keys is as easy as popping off the clear key cap and inserting a new key
label.
Keyboard Configuration Manager
also makes it easy to define the output from the built-in mag-
netic stripe slot reader or from a scanner attached to the KP3700’s built-in scanner port to exactly
the format you require.
