Using a physical keyboard

In Delivery mode, you can enter data using a physical keyboard or an on-screen keyboard. You can choose to use the physical keyboard or the on-screen keyboard exclusively or both keyboards together.

The UseStandardKeyboard parameter allows you to determine whether a physical keyboard can be used. This parameter can have one of the following values:

  • True - only the physical keyboard is used for data input, the on-screen keyboard is unavailable;

  • True - only the on-screen keyboard is used for data input, the physical keyboard is unavailable;

  • Both - the on-screen keyboard is used together with the physical keyboard.

    In this case, the physical keyboard has priority over the on-screen keyboard. To open the latter, click twice on an entry field.

The and keys allow you to navigate between fields. If the cursor is placed on the first field on the screen, only the key will be available. If the focus is on the last field, only the key will be available. You can also move to the next field by pressing Enter.

The Page Up and Page down keys allow you to open drop-down lists and navigate through their options.

Pressing Enter enters the selected value into the field and closes the list. Pressing Esc closes the list without making changes to the field.
