GETTING STARTED 1
The Monarch® 939i keyboard allows you to easily configure the
printer and enter batch data. The keyboard works with the
Monarch® 9855 and Monarch® 9860 printers. This keyboard
also works with non Monarch printers. However, an external
power supply is required for the keyboard. See Appendix A,
"Specifications and Accessories" for the part number.
This chapter includes information about
Nunpacking the keyboard.
Nconnecting the power cable.
Nthe various power up modes available
Nusing the keyboard.
Overview
The 939i keyboard is an "intelligent" keyboard that can be
programmed to show user prompts and collect data. Using the
Application Development Kit II (ADK2), an application, or script,
can be written to program the keyboard. See the ADK manual for
more information. Think of the intelligent keyboard like your PC,
where you can enter data using your PC’s keyboard or connect an
optional scanner to scan data.
With a script, you can
NCreate prompts for the user to enter data manually or using
a scanner. See Appendix C, "Configuring the System," for
more information.
NUse look up tables, or files, to store data that will be
printed on labels.
NPerform additional data tracking, data conversion, and data
manipulation.
Getting Started 1-1

Throughout this manual, you will see references to the term
script. The script is the program that runs on the keyboard to
perform a specific task, such as scanning or collecting data.
Monarch® offers custom script writing. Contact your Monarch
Representative for information and pricing on custom scripts.
Power-Up Modes
Your 939i keyboard has the ability to operate in "terminal" mode
or in "intelligent" mode (using a custom ADK2 script).
If there is no ADK2 script loaded in the keyboard, the keyboard
operates in terminal mode. You can enter data and configure the
printer. In terminal mode, the keyboard does not access the
intelligent functionality provided by a script.
If an ADK2 script is loaded in the keyboard, the script
automatically runs when the keyboard and printer are turned on.
The prompts you see and what you do are controlled by the
script.
About This Manual
This manual is arranged in several sections:
NUse Chapters 2 through 4 when your keyboard is operating in
terminal mode.
NUse Appendix A for keyboard specifications.
NUse Appendix B for the available character sets.
NUse Appendix C, with information for your System
Administrator on intelligent (script) mode and configuring the
scanner.
1-2 Getting Started

About Scripts
