TA85-T85P POS Terminal
The keyboard is and remains the preferred input medium for computers, even in the age of highly modern information technology. This also applies for the electronic POS terminal. The itemized scanning of goods by optical readers using a barcode saves the effort of manually typing in product numbers and prices, yet does not eliminate the need for a keyboard. Program control and alphanumeric data input are still performed via the keyboard. POS keyboards are different from traditional PC keyboards in that functions, categories or items are assigned to keys, which are individually defined by the application. It is necessary as a result to be able to configure and program the individual keys freely. POS keyboards are not simply keyboards, rather they also combine devices such as a key lock, card reader and operator display.
