Dolphin Peripherals 9500 manual Using the Soft Input Panel SIP, Using the SIP Keyboard

Using the Soft Input Panel (SIP)

Use the SIP to enter information in any program on the Dolphin terminal. You can either type on the soft keyboard or write on the touch screen using Letter Recognizer or Block Recognizer. In either case, the characters appear as typed text on the screen.

To show or hide the SIP, tap the Input Panel button. Tap the arrow next to the Input Panel button to see your choices.

When you use the SIP, your terminal anticipates the word you are typing or writing and displays it above the input panel. When you tap the displayed word, it is inserted into your text at the insertion point. The more you use your Dolphin terminal, the more words it learns to anticipate.

>Input > Word Completion tab.
