PHD Dolphin+ basics
With the PHD application installed, your PHD Dolphin+ should appear identical
to the one pictured below. Take a moment to become familiar with the layout of
the keypad and the functions of the various keys. When you're ready, see the
following sections for more information about your PHD.
This symbol indicates which mode
the keypad is in. Use the SHIFT key
to toggle between numeric ( )
and alpha ( ) mode.
This symbol ( ) shows the charge in the main battery. When
the battery is low, it starts blinking. While the PHD is charging, a
blinking arrow ( ) appears; a checkmark ( ) appears
when the battery is fully charged.
Press the ON/SCAN key to wake up" the PHD
from sleep mode, or to scan a barcode.
You can also press ON/SCAN to jump to the main
menu from any other menu.
To switch between numeric and alpha mode,
press the SHIFT key.
When prompted for a yes/no response, the
ENTER key equals YES. When entering data
with the keypad, press ENTER to save it.
When prompted for a yes/no response, the BKSP
key equals NO. BKSP also lets you return to the
previous screen. When entering data with the key
pad, before you press ENTER to save it, you can
use BKSP to back up and correct a mistake.
Note: Any error messages you receive will clear
automatically after a moment. If you prefer, you can
also press BKSP to clear the message.
To turn on the LCD backlight, press SHIFT to put the PHD
in alpha mode and press SP once. To conserve power, the
backlight turns off automatically after 60 seconds. In numeric
mode, SP enters a space.
Navigating the PHD Dolphin+
Selecting the right PHD function is as easy as one, two, three, four. Starting with
the main menu, shown above, every menu option is tied to a specific function
key. The function keys (F1, F2, F3, F4) are located on either side of the ON/SCAN
key. To select a menu option, just press the corresponding key.
Entering alpha and special characters
Although the keypad is designed primarily for entering numbers, you can also
enter alpha and special characters. To switch from numeric to alpha mode, press
the SHIFT key. The alpha mode symbol ( ) appears at the bottom of the screen.
