VX7 User’s Guide E-EQ-VX7OGWW-A
Quick Start
This section’s instructions are based on the assumption that your new system is pre-configured
and requires only accessory installation (e.g. antenna, external keyboard and/or barcode scanner)
and a power source.
Use this guide as you would any other source book -- reading portions to learn about the VX7,
and then referring to it when you need more information about a particular subject. This guide
takes you through installation and operation of the LXE VX7.
In general, the sequence of events is:
1. Install Vehicle Mounting Bracket (and keyboard mounting bracket) on vehicle.
2. Secure VX7 in Mounting Bracket Assembly.
3. Connect vehicle power source to VX7 power cable.
4. Connect power cable to the VX7. The power cable can also be connected to a UPS
battery pack, which is then connected to the VX7.
5. Connect accessories to VX7, e.g. scanner, antenna, keyboard.
6. Secure all cables to the VX7 with the Strain Relief Cable Clamps.
7. Turn the VX7 on.
The VX7 and its keyboard should be mounted in an area in the vehicle where it:
Does not obstruct the vehicle driver’s vision or safe vehicle operation.
Can be easily accessed by anyone seated in the driver’s seat.

Figure 9 The 95-key QWERTY Keyboard
Note: The 2

key function is available on the 60-key keyboard only.
Key Maps
The 95-key keyboard supports all 104 keyboard functions (101 keyboard standard plus Windows
keys) and includes an integrated pointing device and left and right mouse buttons. However,
because the keyboard only has 95 keys, all functions are not visible (or printed on the keyboard).
Therefore the VX7 keyboard supports what is called hidden keys -- keys that are accessible but
not visible on the keyboard.
The hidden keys supported by the VX7 are listed in Appendix A, “Key Maps”.
NumLock and the VX7
For the 95-key keyboard, the NumLock key and the numeric keys are backlit green when
NumLock is off. When NumLock is on, the backlight for the NumLock key and the numeric keys
are amber.
The default value for NumLock is On.
The warmboot behavior of NumLock can be configured. Please refer to the “VX7 Reference
Guide” for more information.
CapsLock, Scroll Lock and the VX7
For the 95-key keyboard, the CapsLock key is backlit green when CapsLock is off. When
CapsLock is on, the backlight for the CapsLock key is amber.
The Scroll Lock key is backlit green when Scroll Lock is off. When Scroll Lock is on, the
backlight for the Scroll Lock key is amber.
The default values for CapsLock and Scroll Lock are Off.
The Keyboards 11
E-EQ-VX7OGWW-A VX7 User’s Guide
Keyboard Backlight
The 95-key keyboard backlights each key with an LED. The keyboard backlight is
manually controlled using the “backlight” key in the upper right hand corner of the
keyboard. Pressing the backlight key cycles the keyboard backlight through the levels of
backlight intensity:
Off
Maximum intensity
Medium intensity
Low intensity.
Pointing device
The mouse pointer may not always be visible. Please see “Touchscreen and Mouse” later in this
manual for more details.

Figure 10 The 60-key QWERTY Keyboard
Key Maps
The 60-key keyboard supports all 101 keyboard functions. However, because the keyboard only
has 60 keys, all functions are not visible (or printed on the keyboard). Therefore the VX7
keyboard supports what is called hidden keys -- keys that are accessible but not visible on the
keyboard.
The hidden keys supported by the VX7 are listed in Appendix A, “Key Maps”.
Unused Key Functions
There are several key functions on the 60-key keyboard that are not used on the VX7. These
include:
<2nd> <F3> – The Resume/Suspend function is not used, as the VX7 does not
support these power management modes.
<2nd> <F4> and <2nd> <F5> – The Display Brightness functions are not used as
the display brightness is adjusted by the buttons on the VX7 control panel.
<2nd> <F6> and <2nd> <F7> – The Contrast functions are not used as the contrast
is not adjustable on the TFT display on the VX7.
<2nd> <F8> and <2nd> <F9> – The Volume control keys are not used as volume is
adjusted via the Microsoft Windows CE .NET Control Panel.
<2nd> <F10> – Please see “Keyboard Backlight” later in this section for details on
toggling the keyboard backlight.
