The Enhanced Honeywell Virtual Keyboard
During text input, you may need to switch between keyboard modes to access additional character sets
(e.g., function keys, symbols, and numbers). Each keyboard mode, includes navigation keys, which allow
you to quickly switch between modes. Touch the ABC key to switch to the Qwerty Mode, the 123 key to
switch to the Numeric Mode, and the #@& key to switch to the Function & Symbols Mode.
Note: The content of the keyboard and the mode initially displayed may vary depending on the application in use
and the input field requirements.
Alternate Keys
Some keys include a second symbol in red. In order to use the alternate symbol, touch and hold the key
until the alternate symbol appears, then release the key to type the symbol.
Honeywell Virtual Keypad Creator
The default enhanced Honeywell virtual keyboard is fully customizable using the Honeywell Virtual
Keypad Creator software available for download at www.honeywellaidc.com. The user-friendly utility
allows you to personalize multiple keyboard features including key position, size, quantity, color, and the
keyboard skin. In addition, you can make language changes, create alternate or function keys for special
character sets, and add application launch keys to streamline common business tasks.
There are two software components required for customizing the enhanced Honeywell Virtual keyboard.
• The first is the Honeywell Virtual Keypad Creator , which resides on your PC and is used to design,
save, and download custom keyboard layouts to your Dolphin terminal.
• The second is the enhanced Honeywell virtual keyboard CAB file (i.e., HoneywellVK-Ver1.x.x.CAB),
which is located in the \IPSM\Honeywell\AutoInstall folder on your Dolphin terminal. This
keyboard file is what displays on the terminal screen when the enhanced Honeywell virtual keyboard
is selected as the default virtual keyboard.
The customization process is easy. Simply download and install the Honeywell Virtual Keypad Creator
software onto your PC, open and modify the provided standard template, click on the Synchronize with
Device button and select Install Keypad. Follow the prompts to install the Virtual Keypad on your
mobile device.
Note: An active Microsoft® ActiveSync® or Windows® Mobile Device Center connection between the host PC
running Virtual Keypad Creator and your mobile device is required for this operation.
