For DOP-W series HMI it is possible to customize the layout and input keys for the onboard keypad entry.

These are the default keypad options in DOPSoft:

These options include all the basic keys that are needed in most applications but sometimes the users needs to customize the character entry for their design.

Example 1 : Customer would like to use the HMI for product rating system and log their details such as email address. For this the “@” character is needed which is not available on the custom keypad.

Solution: Please see link below for short video demonstration and also attached DOPSoft program.
