The Keyboards
Two keyboard options are available:
•
48-key alpha-numeric keyboard.
•
26-key numeric keyboard.
These keyboard options are available for both variants of NEO –
connected
hand-helds
equipped with 802.11b/g radios and
batch
(unconnected)
hand-helds
not
equipped with
802.11b/g radios.
Most of the keys on these keyboards operate much like a desktop computer. Where a key or
key function is not consistent with the PC keyboard, the differences are noted.
The [FN/BLUE] and [FN/ORANGE] modifier keys provide access to additional keys and
system functions. These functions are colour coded in
orange
and
blue
print on the
keyboard keys.
3.4.1
Modifier Keys
The [SHIFT], [CTRL], [ALT], [FN/BLUE] and [FN/ORANGE] keys are
modifier
keys.
Pressing a modifier key changes the function of the next key pressed.
The [SHIFT], [CTRL] and [ALT] keys operate much like a desktop keyboard except that
they are not chorded (two keys held down simultaneously). The modifier key must be
pressed first followed by the key whose function you want modified.
3.4.1.1 Activating Modifier Keys & the Shift-State Indicator
When a modifier key is pressed, it is represented in the shift-state indicator icon in the
softkey bar
at the bottom of the screen, making it easier to determine whether or not a modi-
fier key is active. If the shift-state indicator icon is not visible (you can only see the soft
keyboard icon), you may need to take a few steps to display the shift-state indicator icon.

followed by the

icon.
Important: Keep in mind that turning off NEO does not result in a complete reboot;
rather, the unit enters a power-saving, “suspend” state. When the unit is
turned on from suspend state, operation resumes within a few seconds.
