Intermec CK30 user manual Using the Keypad

Chapter 1 — Using the CK30 Handheld Computer

Using the Keypad

Your CK30 has one of the following keypad overlay options:

•42-key large numeric and function

•50-key full alphanumeric

•52-key full alphanumeric

You can order all versions of the CK30 keypad with an international overlay. The international overlay supports English and many Western European languages, such as French, German, Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish. You enter all of the characters and functions printed above the keys just like you would on a standard keypad.

Note: There are several hidden characters (such as { and }) on each CK30 keypad that require using the color-coded keys to access them. For more information on accessing these hidden characters, refer to “Typing Characters Not Printed on the Keypad” on page 111.

The CK30 supports TE 2000 VT100/220/320/340 and ANSI, TE 2000 5250, and TE 2000 3270. When you order the CK30 with a TE 2000 application, you must order the corresponding keypad overlay. Use the TE 2000 keypad overlays to enter the same keys that you can enter on a VT/ANSI keyboard, an IBM 5250 keyboard, or an IBM 3270 keyboard.

Like the standard CK30 keypad overlays, the TE 2000 keypad overlays let you enter all the characters printed on or above the keys. The terminal emulation keypads also come with the same color-coded keys that are on the standard overlay.

For more help using TE 2000 terminal emulation, see the appropriate TE 2000 programmer’s guide.
