    The programmable keys have no effect on barcode scanners tethered to the device. Because the VX3Plus has no integrated scanner installed, both buttons default to Enter buttons (with the exception of IBM 5250 terminal emulation devices – in this case, the left button is labeled and functions as Field Exit).
  • Page 35: Keypad

    The QWERTY keypad is phosphorescent. A phosphorescent keypad does not use a keypad backlight but glows in dim/dark areas after exposure to a light source. The VX3Plus keypad is available with a standard ANSI overlay, an IBM 3270 overlay or an IBM 5250 overlay. These keypads have 101 keyboard functions, including a numeric keypad.
  • Page 36: Alt

    The Alt key enables the alternate functions of the keypad. This function is similar to a regular keyboard’s Alt key. Note that the Alt key only stays active for one keystroke. Each time you need to use an alternate function, you need to press the Alt key before pressing the desired key.

    AC to DC power input for the VX3Plus is delivered via an optional external power supply and adapter cable. Vehicle power input for the VX3Plus is 12V to 80V DC nominal and is accepted without the need to perform any manual operation within the VX3Plus.
  • Page 39: External Power Supply

    In all cases, connect the external AC supply to a properly grounded source of supply provided with maximum 15 Amp overcurrent protection (10 Amp for 230V circuits). An adapter cable is necessary to adapt the end of the DC output cable to the VX3Plus power connector. Endcap Combinations The VX3Plus endcap has two external ports in four combinations.
  • Page 40: Serial / Usb-H Endcap

    Serial / USB-H Endcap One port is labeled RS-232. This is a 9 pin serial port and is designated as COM1. This port can be used to attach an external scanner. The second port is labeled USB-H. This port provides a USB Host connection via an adapter cable. USB-C / USB-H Endcap One port is labeled USB-C.
