5.4.7 Keyboard
The Software Input Panel (SIP) is a keyboard which can be called up on the display,
either with the keyboard key (see 1.1) or by double-clicking on the keyboard symbol in
the bottom-right corner of the Windows CE desktop. The user can vary the size of the
keyboard.
Optionally, the following keyboard parts can be activated:
• Standard keys (QWERTY keyboard with additionally: Esc, Tab, Caps lock, shift,
control, Windows, Alt, right click, International, Enter and Backspace key)
• Function keys (F1..F12)
• Numeric keys (numeric block with mathematical operators and Enter key,
changeable to cursor block with cursor keys, home, end, page up, page down,
insert and delete key)
5.4.8 Handwriting Recognition
The “Jot” handwriting recognition program permits the user to write inputs directly onto
the screen, without using the Software Input Panel. It can be activated and deactivated
in the program line of the CE desktop at any time.
The letters, numbers and special characters must be written individually one after
another, with the pen being lifted between each one. Each character is written using
one or two continuous lines in succession. To do this, the user must learn a particular
representation of the characters.
This means that the program does not have to be initially taught the user’s handwriting.
The advantage of this is that several users can make their inputs without the
handwriting recognition program having to relearn the user’s writing each time.
The input field is subdivided into three zones. This subdivision is indicated by the
arrow-shaped mode mark on the right side of the screen. The mode mark can be
moved up and down by the user. Numbers are drawn above the mode mark.
