Introducing the Palm™ Portable Keyboard

The Palm™ Portable Keyboard is the convenient, portable solution for typing text and commands quickly and easily into your Palm OS® handheld. This compact and fully functional keyboard enables you to do the following:

Type text and special characters into your Palm applications
- Quickly access your main applications with keyboard buttons
Enter commands and options with function keys
Travel anywhere with a keyboard for your handheld

Before you can use your keyboard, you must do the following:

Install the Palm Portable Keyboard application on your handheld
- Set up the keyboard and attach your Palm OS handheld

Installing the Application

Before you install the Palm Portable Keyboard application on your handheld, it's a good idea to perform a HotSync® operation to back up your data.

The application for the Palm Portable Keyboard controls the way the portable keyboard interacts with your handheld. It's a PRC file like most other applications for your handheld.

To install the keyboard application:

1. Insert the CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive.
2. Follow the onscreen instructions to complete the installation.

Note: If installation does not begin, click the Windows Start button, choose Run, enter D:\autorun.exe, and then click OK. If necessary, replace D: with the drive letter assigned to your CD-ROM drive.

Setting Up the Keyboard

Always use your keyboard on a hard, flat surface.

To open the keyboard:

1. Hold the keyboard in your hands and slide the latch down to open the case.

1. Unfold the keyboard and place it on a hard, flat surface.

1. Grasp the two side-grips (with red borders) and slide them in toward the keyboard's center until the keyboard sections are completely together.

1. Your next step depends on the kind of keyboard you are opening. Keyboard for the Palm™ m500 series: While holding the keyboard, slide the docking connector support bracket out until the flat support springs upward.

Keyboard for the Palm III™ series, Palm VII™ series, and Palm™ m100 series: While holding the keyboard, slide the docking connector support bracket out until the flat support springs upward; then tilt up the docking connector.

Keyboard for the Palm V™ series: While holding the keyboard, slide the docking connector support bracket out until it clicks; then tilt it up and push the flat support outward.

To connect your handheld:

1. Line up your handheld with the angle of the support bracket.
2. Slide your handheld securely onto the keyboard docking connector. Your handheld turns on automatically.

Palm m500 series

Palm III series, Palm VII series, and Palm m100 series

Palm V series

After you install the keyboard application and connect the handheld, you can begin typing.

Note: If you connect your handheld to the keyboard before installing the keyboard PRC file, you will start a HotSync operation. Install the keyboard PRC file first.

To remove your handheld:

For the Palm m500 series: Tilt the handheld forward, and then pull up.
For the Palm III series, Palm VII series, Palm m100 series, and Palm V series: Pull handheld up.

Closing the Keyboard

When you finish using your keyboard, remove the handheld, unlock and fold up the keyboard, and close it back into a portable case.

To close the keyboard:

1. Pull your handheld up and away from the docking connector.
2. Fold the docking connector support bracket in and down flat; then slide it back into the keyboard.
3. With your thumbs, slide the side-grips to the outside of the keyboard. Make sure the two outer keyboard sections are as far apart as possible.

1. Fold the center section upward, and bring the left and right sides together. The keyboard now forms a "W."

1. Continue to fold the keyboard shut. Press the two sides of the case together, and then snap all four corners shut. You feel a click at all four corners.

Customizing Your Keyboard

Frequently Asked Questions

If you encounter a problem with your keyboard, first review both "General questions and answers" below and the following sources:

The readme file in your C:\Palm\Keyboard folder on the desktop computer
The web site http://www.palm.com/custsupp/keyboard for the latest FAQ and/or Troubleshooting guide for the keyboard

If you are still having problems, contact Technical Support. For US and international telephone numbers, see the Worldwide Customer Support card that comes with your keyboard. International support numbers are also available in the International page of the web site http://www.palm.com.

General questions and answers

Does the keyboard require batteries?

No. The keyboard is designed to use an extremely low amount of power from your handheld.

Can I use the same keyboard for all handhelds?

No. The keyboard is available in several versions, depending on your handheld model. Please check the packaging for handheld compatibility.

Can I perform a HotSync® operation on the handheld while using the keyboard?

No. The keyboard does not replace the functionality of your cradle. To perform a HotSync operation after entering data with the keyboard, remove your handheld from the keyboard and place it in your cradle. Then press the HotSync button.

Does the keyboard support international characters?

Yes. You can enter international characters in two ways:

Use keyboard shortcuts: Use the function key (Fn) in combination with another key to add accent marks to letters you type and to type punctuation marks. See "Extended character set" earlier in this book.

For example, to type the o in Köln, type the o, and then press Fn and ; (function key and semicolon). The umlaut appears over the o.

Use the Alt key on the portable keyboard: When you press and hold down the Alt key, the next key you press produces the character corresponding to that location on your handheld's onscreen international keyboard.

For example, to type the ö in Köln, press and hold down Alt; then press c on your portable keyboard.
