Before You Install
CHAPTER 1
The Jarltech 8037 programmable keyboards have been specially designed for use with
personal computers or terminals in point-of-sale and industrial applications.
This manual describes how to connect the Jarltech keyboard to your system, how to design a
keyboard layout which meets your special requirements, and how to install your keyboard layout
into the Jarltech keyboard.
8037 is a tactile keyboard with seven rows and ten columns for a maximum of 70 keys; which is
with single, double, and quadruple key caps. For the keyboard layout, key functions and key
data strings are completely programmable. Each keyboard is capable of two concurrent
keyboard maps with switching between the maps controlled by one designated key. Go to
Appendix I for picture reviewing.
JP-8037 has both RS232 and IBM keyboard wedge interface operation mode, and they can be
set before you start to use. The 8037 keyboard is capable of receiving data from any external
RS232 device (e.g., bar code scanner) and transmitting that data to a host computer via either
the keyboard wedge or an RS232 interface. A magnetic stripe reading decoder is built into the
circuit board of the 8037, allowing easy stripe of the built card reader.
Step 1: Turn off your computer
By shutting off your computer, you will prevent any accidental damage to the keyboard and your
computer.

Preparation for Programming
CHAPTER 2
This chapter describes the connection of Jarltech Series 8037 keyboards to a host computer for
programming. The Jarltech 8037 keyboard may be programmed through either the RS232 port
or IBM keyboard port.
Programming via the RS232 Port
Step 1: Turn off your computer
If you have not already done so, turn off your computer to avoid any accidental damage to the
keyboard and your computer.
Step 2: Decide on power access
The keyboard requires +12V DC for programming via the RS232 port (Please refer to Appendix
II). This may be provided through an internal connection in your computer or through an
external connection to a 110V/220V adapter. The components for an internal connection are
provided. If you are using an external adapter, be sure that it conforms with the specifications
listed in Appendix II and then go to Step 4.
Step 3: Using internal power source
Review the RS232 installation shown in Diagram 2.1. Plug the RS232 cable to your computer
on the COM port, system will provide +12V DC to the keyboard through RS232 cable.

Step 4: Connect keyboard to computer
Attach the 9-pin female (DB9F) RS232 connector with built-in DC jack to an available male
equivalent (DB9M) RS232 communication port on your computer. Provide power to the DC jack
on the DB9F connector using either a cable connection to the +12V DC power plate or an
external adapter.
Connect the 9-pin female (DB9M) side of the RS232 cable to the HOST port on the rear face of
the keyboard.
Step 5: Disconnect peripherals from keyboard
While using the HOST port for programming the keyboard, be sure that no peripheral devices
are connected to any of the remaining ports.
Step 6: Confirm RS232 pin assignments
Please ensure that the RS232 on your computer conform with the pin assignments of the HOST
port on the Jarltech keyboard:
