3270 Emulator
There are two physical configurations of the 3270 emulator keypad, however both of the keypads are
functionally identical. The 3270 emulator keypad contains a Power button, application keys, scroll
keys and a function key. The keypad is color-coded to indicate the alternate function key (blue) values.
Note that keypad functions can be changed by an application so the mobile computer’s keypad may
not function exactly as described. See Table 2-4 on page 2-14 for key and button descriptions and
Table 2-7 on page 2-22 for the keypad’s special functions.

The 3270 emulator keypad is only used when the mobile computer is running
the 3270 emulation software. When the mobile computer is not running the
3270 emulation software, the 3270 keypad functions are the same as a 53-
key keypad.
