Environmental Conditions
This keyboard, including the Pogo Pins, USB 2.0 Input Port and USB-C Power
Port, is IP54 rated.
No plug or cover is needed. This rating applies with or without the tablet;
however, any damage to the product, even if the product is still functional,
may negate the IP rating. There is also a pair of Drain Holes at the bottom of
the Cover to help drain excess water.

- Operating -20 C to 60 C (-4 F to 140 F)
- Storage -40 C to 85 C (-40 F to 185 F)
This keyboard is tested to a hybrid of Gamber-Johnson rugged standards including life cycle testing of the hinge and the removal of the tablet. It is designed to assist in the rugged market, but it is NOT designed to mount in a vehicle.
Using the Product
This keyboard is designed to be plug & play with the tablet. Simply connect the tablet.
There is a USB 2.0 Input Port that supplies 500 mA of power. This port can be used to quickly and easily attach a flash drive, mouse, or other digital device with a USB type A plug. There is a USB-C Power Port to charge the tablet. This port is power only and will not transmit data. (See below.)
There are 12 function keys as well as a range of preset quick keys. These keys will not necessarily perform the same function on each application.
The keyboard is designed to work with the Cover open from 110 to 122 . The
Rubber Pads and Built-in Kickstand provide support for this range and prevent
the keyboard from slipping while being used. The Cover opens to a max of 122 .
(See right.)
There is a hard stop to prevent it from opening further. Trying to open the
Cover beyond this angle may result in permanant damage.
All features of the tablet, including the camera, S-pen, audio port,
microphones, speakers, and buttons at the top, remain accessible.
The USB-C port on the tablet is blocked as a safety feature and to guarantee
the correct functionality of this attachable keyboard. Use the USB-C Power
Port on the keyboard to charge the product. (See right.)
The blue Bumpers and other features provide support for the product to survive vibration if it is loose in a vehicle and closed. They also provide limited support for accidental impact and drops.
There are two Accessory Inserts on the bottom of this keyboard. These are specifically designed for additional accessories produced by Gamber-Johnson. These should not be used for any other devices and will void the product’s warranty if used without Gamber-Johnson products.
