scanning/imaging. Both can be programmed by various software applications.

Display

Dolphin terminals feature a color 3.5” liquid crystal display (LCD) touch screen covered with an industrial, protective
lens for greater durability. The video graphic array (VGA) resolution is 1/4 (240 X 320 pixel). The touch screen can
be activated by the stylus (included with the terminal) or a finger.

The color LCD is 16 bits/pixel and uses thin film transistor (TFT) technology. The backlight for the touch screen
lights when the screen is touched, but not when the Backlight key is pressed. For more information about the
Backlight, see

Adjusting the Backlight

on page

4-13.

SCAN Key

The SCAN key is centrally located for easy access with the right or left hand. When pressed, the SCAN key
activates the scanner/imager. The SCAN key also functions as an on or system wakeup control for the terminal.

Navigation Keys

The centrally-located navigation keys enable you to move and position the cursor through software programs. The
up and down arrows are programmed to perform specific functions when pressed in combination with the Blue and
Red modifier keys.

Keyboard

The Dolphin terminal features three keyboard options: 35-key numeric/alpha keyboard, 43-key numeric/alpha
keyboard, and 56-key full alpha/numeric keyboard. For a complete overview of each keyboard, see

Each keyboard is

backlit for easy viewing in various lighting conditions and contains centrally located keys for both

right- and left-hand operation. The silver background of both the keys and the overlay enhances the readability of
each. The overlay of all three keyboards are color-coded to indicate the functions performed or characters typed
when the color-coded key is pressed immediately after the Red or Blue Modifier key at the bottom of the keyboard.
