Connect an External Keyboard
You can attach a compact or standard external keyboard to make data
entry easier. To attach a standard keyboard, you also need an
appropriate USB cable.
1 Mount the keyboard. For help, see the installation instructions that
ship with the mounting kit.
2 Connect the keyboard to the CV31:
• For compact keyboards, connect the keyboard cable to the AUX
port on the computer.
• For standard keyboards, connect an appropriate USB cable to the
computer, and then connect the keyboard to the USB cable.
About External Antennas
Use an external antenna to increase the signal strength of the wireless
radio in the CV31. You can mount the antenna on a wall, forklift, or other
flat surface with hardware or adhesive-backed hook and loop fastener
material.
For most fixed installations, you should mount the antenna in a vertically-
polarized position with the cable from the antenna parallel to the floor and
ceiling. However, you may need to experiment with antenna position to
find an orientation that provides the best antenna performance. Use the
ISpyWiFi application that ships on the computer to determine which
antenna position provides the best signal strength.
