Integrating the Enterprise Keyboard with EC30 Devices

The Zebra Profile Client works with Enterprise Keyboard (EKB) on EC30 devices to enable custom layout provided the following steps are taken:
  1. Install the Zebra Profile Client
  2. Install the version of EKB that is compatible with the Profile Client version.
  3. Configure the device to make the EKB the default keyboard.
  4. Start the Profile Client. The layout file bundled with the Profile Client (EKBCustomLayoutEC30v5.encrypted) is copied to the EKB folder.
  5. The username or password field should appear with the EKB custom layout keyboard.
    Launch the Profile Client before any other application after installing the EKB. If another application is launched before the Profile Client, the EKB shows the default keyboard. To resolve this issue, reboot the device.
    With an IDP such as Keycloak or Octa, the username, password, and submit button field names are not the same as the values used with ADFS. The customer administrator must change the ID names (key_user_name, key_user_pwd, key_submit) in the Profile Client configuration file.
