Alpha/Application These keys can have an application assigned to the function value and have an alpha value
assigned when used with the ALPHA function key.
On Windows Mobile 5.0 devices: F6 and F7 keys cannot be remapped and are dedicated
by the Operating System to control volume level. When these keys are pressed, Shell.exe
traps them and displays the volume adjustment window. To get these keys to an application,
call GXOpenInput() at the beginning of the application and call GXCloseInput() at the end of
the application. This redirects all of the key events to an application, including the F6 and F7
keys.
Note: Other applications cannot receive any key event until GXCloseInput() is called. For
example, if the customer is using the APP1 key to run Calc.exe, this is disabled during this
period.
