Is there or has there been
any mention within the software development of the use of directional keys as opposed
to strictly numeric input. I come
back to this for those individuals that will rely on only a fist for input. Larry J. Dix Vice President of Operations Global Election Systems -----Original
Message----- I think this is
"fixed" in 4.1.2. It is mostly academic
however. You can't run an election with the security door unlocked.
If you want to meet TX fist requirements, you'll want to bring that up with our
hardware department when they design the VIBS keypad. Ken

Message----- The numeric key row above the qwerty keys is inoperable when plugging
in a keyboard for use as an input device for VIBS. The numeric keypad to the right of the keyboard is operable. This creates a problem when demonstrating ADA capabilities using a big
key keyboard. The big key keyboard does not have a numeric keypad
and therefore can not enter numeric commands. The big key keyboard was selected to meet ADA requirements
in Texas that require all controls and operable mechanisms to be operable with
one hand including a closed fist. Larry J. Dix Vice President of Operations Global Election Systems |
