Keyboard Protection Ribs

These ribs protect the keyboard and prevent keys from being pressed accidentally when the terminal is placed facedown on a flat surface. For a complete overview of each keyboard, see Using the Keyboards on page 4-1.

Touch Panel Display

The 3.5 inch 1/4 VGA (Video Graphic Array) display is a transflective color LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) in TFT (Thin Film Transistor) color with a 240 x 320 resolution. The LCD is covered by an industrial touch screen lens for maximum durability and backlit for maximum viewability; see Backlight on page 6-8.

For touch panel input, use the stylus included with the terminal or your finger. The method you choose depends on which one is most appropriate for your application. While there is a great deal of variation in different applications, use of the supplied stylus provides greater touch screen accuracy; see Using the Stylus on page 2-3.

Dolphin terminals ship with screen protectors already installed. Screen protectors help prevent wear and damage to the touch panel; especially when used with applications that require high- volume interfacing with the touch panel. Screen protectors are subject to wear and tear.

Therefore, inspect screen protectors regularly and replace them when worn or punctured.

!Using sharp objects, such as paper clips, pencils, or ink pens and may cause damage not covered by the warranty.
