VX4 User’s Guide E-EQ-VX4OGWW-H-ARC The Keyboards 9 Key Maps The keyboard supports all 101 keyboard functions. However, because the keyboard only has 60 keys, all functions are not visible (or printed on the keyboard). Therefore the VX4 keyboard supports what is called hidden keys -- keys that are accessible but not visible on the keyboard. On standard keyboards many keys are found in the Alphanumeric section as well as on the Numeric keypad (i.e. the 1 key is found on the numeric keypad and above the alpha characters on standard keyboards). However these keys send distinctly different scan codes when the keys are pressed. The default codes for the VX4 keys correspond to the numeric keypad on standard keyboards. In order to duplicate the codes sent when the alphanumeric key is pressed, the hidden keystroke must be used. The hidden keys supported by the VX4 are listed in Appendix A, “Key Maps”. Unused Key Functions There are several key functions that are not used on the VX4. These include: • <F3> - The Resume/Suspend function is not used as Microsoft Windows controls all power management modes. • <F4>, <F5>, <F6> and <F7> - The Display Brightness and Contrast functions are not used as these properties are not adjustable on the TFT display on the VX4. • <F8> and <F9> - The Volume control keys are not used as volume is adjusted via the Microsoft Windows Volume icon in the System Tray. • <F10> - The <F10> key is used in conjunction with the <2nd> key to toggle the keyboard backlight on or off. See “Keyboard Backlight” below. NumLock and the VX4 The keyboard does not have a NumLock indicator or key, however NumLock is On by default in the BIOS. NumLock can be toggled Off or On using the <2nd> <SHIFT> <F10> keypress sequence. Please refer to the “VX4 Reference Guide” for more information on NumLock. Keyboard Backlight The LXE keyboard keys are backlit with LEDs. The backlight is manually controlled using the <2nd> + <CTRL> + <F10> keypress sequence. E-EQ-VX4OGWW-H-ARC VX4 User’s Guide 10 The Keyboards Keyboard LEDs The VX4 keyboard has three (3) LED indicators. 1. CapsLock Mode LED Indicator 2. Secondary Mode LED Indicator 3. Status LED Indicator Figure 5 Keyboard LEDs CAPS LED This LED indicates the state of the keyboard CapsLock mode. If CapsLock is enabled this LED is illuminated green. When CapsLock is off, the LED is dark. Figure 6 The CapsLock Key Press <2nd> then <F1> to toggle CapsLock On and Off. The default value of CapsLock is “Off”. VX4 User’s Guide E-EQ-VX4OGWW-H-ARC The Keyboards 11 Secondary Keys LED The VMT keyboard is equipped with several secondary keys. These keys are identified by the superscripted text found on the keyboard keys. The secondary keys are accessible by using two (2) keystrokes: the <2nd> key followed by the superscripted key. Figure 7 The Secondary Key Once the <2nd> state is enabled (by pressing the <2nd> key) the Secondary Mode LED is illuminated and the <2nd> state is enabled until another key is pressed. The <2nd> key is toggled on with a <2nd> keypress and then immediately off with another <2nd> keypress. For example: Press <2nd> and <F1> to turn CapsLock on and off. Press <2nd> and <↑> to initiate the PgUp command. Press <2nd> and <Q> to type the “!” key. Press <2nd> and <BkSp> to enter the Insert (Ins) mode. Status LED Figure 8 The Resume/Suspend Key The Status LED, located on the front of the keyboard, is illuminated green when the unit is powered on. The Status LED is dark when power is disconnected. Note: This LED should not be lit when power is disconnected from the VX4. The Resume/Suspend key has no effect on a VX4. All power management is controlled by Microsoft Windows. Windows Power Management contains options to set the display timer, hard disk timer and standby timer. Please refer to “Status Indicator” in the “Operation” section of this manual for more details on Windows Power Management. E-EQ-VX4OGWW-H-ARC VX4 User’s Guide 12 The Keyboards Control Keys The VMT keyboard has several control keys. Because of the construction of the VX4 and the Microsoft Windows operating system, many of the Control Keys are not used on the VX4. Note: The <F4>, <F5>, <F6>, and <F7> keys have no function as the VX4 has TFT LCD screen with no provision for contrast or brightness adjustments. The <F8> and <F9> keys have no function as the sound volume on the VX4 is controlled with the Sound icon in the Microsoft Windows System Tray. The <F10> key is used to toggle the backlight as part of the keypress sequence <2nd> + <CTRL> + <F10>. This key sequence immediately toggles the status of the keyboard backlight. Pressing <2nd> + <F10> has no effect on the keyboard backlight. 1. Display Brightness Control Keys (Not used) 2. Display Contrast Control Keys (Not used) 3. Speaker Volume Control Keys (Not used) 4. Backlight Control Key (See above) Figure 9 The VMT Keyboard Display Controls VX4 User’s Guide E-EQ-VX4OGWW-H-ARC Power Supply 13 Power Supply Vehicle power input for the VX4 is 12V to 60V DC and is accepted without the need to perform any manual adjustments within the VX4. See the section titled “Installation”, sub-section titled “Vehicle 12-60V DC Direct Connection.” If 12V to 60V DC power is not available – for example, in an office environment – an optional external Universal Input Power Supply can be used to convert AC wall power to an appropriate DC level. See the section titled “Installation”, sub-section titled “External Power Supply.” Power input is fused for protection and the fuse is externally accessible. See section titled “Installation”, sub-section titled “Fuse Replacement for the VX4.” Backup Battery The internal 270 mAh Lithium backup (coin cell) battery provides power to maintain the real time clock when the VX4 is not powered from an external source. The backup battery requires no user intervention. Replacement must be performed by LXE. Caution ! Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same type or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer. Dispose of used batteries according to the manufacturer’s instructions.

Caution: ! Please read the caution labels. Avoid exposure. Laser light is emitted from the scanner’s aperture. Use of controls, adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure. The scanner uses laser light. The following labels are representations of caution and warning labels placed on laser scanners. Figure 43 Caution Labels Class II Scanner Figure 44 Caution Labels Class IIIA Scanner Do not pour, spray, or spill any liquid on the scanner. The Barcode Scanner contains the circuitry, scanning motor and laser. Handle with appropriate care. Cleaning the Scan Aperture Keep fingers and rough or sharp objects away from the scan aperture and display. If the glass becomes soiled or smudged, clean only with a standard household cleaner such as Windex® without vinegar or use Isopropyl Alcohol. Do not use paper towels or harsh-chemical-based cleaning fluids since they may result in damage to the glass surface. Use a clean, damp, lint-free cloth. Do not scrub optical surfaces. If possible, clean only those areas which are soiled. Lint/particulates can be removed with clean, filtered canned air. VX4 User’s Guide E-EQ-VX4OGWW-H-ARC Enter Data 51 Enter Data You can enter data into the VX4 through several different methods: • The tethered scanner connected to the COM1 serial port provides barcode data entry • The serial ports are used to input/output data • The keyboards provide manual entry • The touchscreen also provides manual entry. Keyboard Entry Refer to “Appendix: Key Maps” for specific keypresses. The keyboard is used to manually input data that is not collected otherwise. Almost any function that a full sized computer keyboard can provide is duplicated on the LXE VMT keyboard but it may take a few more keystrokes to accomplish a keyed task. Almost every key has two or three different functions. The primary alpha or numeric character is printed on the key. For example, when the <2nd> key is selected pressing the desired second-function key produces the <2nd> character i.e. <2nd> + F1 toggles the CAPS Lock function. The specific <2nd> character is printed above the corresponding key. Please refer to “Appendix: Key Maps” for instruction on the specific keypresses to access all PCcompatible keyboard functions. Touchscreen Entry Note: This section is directed to the VX4 operator. The assumption is that the unit has been configured and the touch panel calibrated by the System Administrator prior to releasing the VX4 for operator use. Note: Always use the point of the stylus for tapping or making strokes on the display. Never use an actual pen, pencil or sharp object to write on the touch screen. The touchscreen input performs the same function as the mouse that is used to point to and click elements on a desk top computer. The stylus is used in the same manner as a mouse – single tap or double tap to select menu options, drag the stylus across text to select, hold the stylus down to activate slider bars, etcetera. Holding the stylus down for ½ second performs the right mouse click function. When using a stylus, hold the stylus as if it were a pen or pencil. Touch an element on the screen with the tip of the stylus then remove the stylus from the screen. The touch screen responds to an actuation force (touch) of up to 4 oz. of pressure. The touch screen can be used in conjunction with the keyboard and scanner and an input/output device connected to one of the VX4’s serial ports. • Touch the stylus to the field of the data entry form to receive the next data feed. • The cursor begins to flash in the field. • The unit is ready to accept data from either the keyboard, integrated scanner or a device connected to a serial port. E-EQ-VX4OGWW-H-ARC VX4 User’s Guide 52 Enter Data Scanner Entry The following section is directed toward a generic tethered scanner connected to the COM1 serial port on the VX4. Aiming the Barcode Scanner Aim the scanner away from you, direct it at the barcode and press the trigger to scan. The Scan On LED (or equivalent) turns red to indicate the scanner is on. Adjust the aim so that the thin, red laser beam covers the entire length of the barcode. Some scanners use a laser aiming beam which then spreads into a wide beam when the scanner’s Aiming Beam Timer expires. Place the aiming beam in the center of the barcode and hold the scanner steady until the beam spreads and the barcode is decoded. Beeps may be heard as the barcode is decoded. Refer to the barcode scanner user’s guide for information on the Aiming Beam Timer and beep sequences, and the TE reference guide for host generated beep sequences. The scan beam must cross every bar and space on the barcode. Correct Scan Incorrect Scan Incorrect Scan Figure 45 Scan Beam Distance from Label Large barcodes can be scanned at the maximum distance. Hold the scanner closer to small barcodes (or with bars that are very close together). Note: Do not position the scanner exactly perpendicular to the barcode being scanned. In this position, light can bounce back into the scanner’s exit window, and possibly prevent a successful decode. Successful Scan When the scan is successful, the scanner’s good scan indicator illuminates, the scan on indicator is off, and the currently running application may produce a distinctive audible tone. Unsuccessful Scan When the scan is unsuccessful, the scan on indicator remains illuminated and the currently running application may produce distinctive audible tones. Check the following: VX4 User’s Guide • Is the scanner programmed for the barcode being read? • Check the barcode for marks or physical damage e.g. ripped label, missing section, etc. • Try scanning test symbols of the same code type at different distances and angles.
