3.6 QWERTY 8255/8260 Keyboards

Important: 8255 vehicle-mounts are available with sealed, low profile
keyboards. The solid rubber membrane covering this keyboard
protects the terminal from damage that may result from debris
or moisture seeping into the terminal.

3.6.1 Accessing Alpha Keys

The alpha keys on vehicle-mount QWERTY keyboards are directly accessible – a
key combination is not required.
For example, to type the letter 'q':
• Press the <Q> key.
To type the letter 'w':
• Press the <W> key, and so on.
Creating Uppercase Letters
To display an uppercase letter:
• Press the <SHIFT> key before typing an alpha character.

3.6.2 Accessing QWERTY Function Keys

Keep in mind that vehicle-mount terminals are available in two keyboard types –
'F1 to F6' and 'F1 to 'F10' (see "8255 And 8260 Vehicle-Mount Terminal
Keyboards" on page 47 for a brief description). Depending on which keyboard type
you are using, accessing function keys differs slightly. These differences are
highlighted in this section.
Important: Make certain that the appropriate keyboard type – 'F1 to 'F10'
or 'F1 to F6' – is selected in the "Keyboard Type" parameter (see
"Keyboard Type – Vehicle-Mounts Only" on page 130).
