Figure 2-35 Virtual Keyboard, Typical Configuration
Virtual keyboards display the actual character the keypress outputs. For example, pressing the
<Shift> key on the virtual keyboard toggles the characters displayed on the keys between upper
and lower case.
Note: When the virtual keyboard is displayed, the physical keyboard is still active, if attached.
Therefore it is possible to input data from both keyboards.
