Using the Velocity Console
The Velocity Console is an administrative desktop application designed for importing and editing screen capture themes, creating custom keyboards, and associating host profiles that you can use on the Ivanti Velocity Client for Android devices. With this resource, you can create projects that contain stylized screens and screen elements and then deploy them to the Velocity Client for use on Android devices.
For more information on each of these features, see the Velocity Console User Guide.
The following topics briefly discuss the capabilities offered with the Velocity Console application:
Beyond the default keyboards offered on Android devices, the Velocity Client is designed to work with custom keyboards created using the Velocity Console. With this tool, you can create unique keyboard layouts, key values, and coloring themes and then export them to the Client for immediate use.
With the Velocity Console, custom keyboards can be set up via the host profile to only appear when in a specific orientation or while on a specific screen or field. Using the desktop administration application, you can create custom keyboards and identify any rules for when a screen is to be accessible from the Velocity Client.
With Velocity's built-in HTML and CSS rendering engine, the Client is able to associate element classes with text values on a screen. Utilizing this capability, the Velocity Client identifies and interprets varying elements into headers, text, and fields for a more navigable end-user experience. When viewing screens with the HTML renderer, these elements are displayed using styles established either with predictive formatting or themes created using the Velocity Console. For more information about disabling or enabling HTML rendering, see Using Native Mode.
As part of Velocity's HTML and CSS rendering engine, the Velocity Client interprets your existing screen captures to break down existing text elements and divide them into a predetermined list of elements:
•Data labels
•Data values
•Headers
•Menu items
•Buttons
•Fields
Each of these elements can be stylized with unique font type, size, color, and more through the Velocity Console.
Using the Velocity Console, you can create scripts for the Velocity Client. This component provides the ability to quickly create scripts, associate them with project deployments, and import them onto mobile devices. The functionality provided by this feature is available only to Velocity 1.2 and newer versions.
You can only run scripts on the Velocity Client while a session is active. If the connection is terminated, the script stops. When switching between sessions, the script running in the inactive session remains suspended until that session is active again.
With the Velocity Console's scripting capabilities, you can perform such functions as:
•Inject HTML, CSS, and JS into Web sessions
•Create events that trigger on keystrokes or actions, or even launch applications
•Activate or disable device functions such as the scanner, software keyboard, and audible beeps
The Velocity Console is a desktop application tool that allows administrators to create projects that contain custom keyboards, host profiles, and HTML themes. These configurations are then saved as a .wldep
file and can be stored on Smart devices with external SD cards, either manually or via a mobile device management service, like Ivanti Avalanche. This proprietary file contains all scripts, images, keyboards, themes, and other resources needed to use the project at the device level.
Speakeasy provides the ability to translate data from session screens into spoken directions that the user is able to hear (text-to-speech). The user’s spoken response can then be transcribed and sent back to the host computer (speech-to-text).
This functionality is enabled and set up through the Velocity Console. From the console, you can perform tasks like these:
•Create voice commands for context menu items such as volume control, voice speed, and repeat
•Add custom or edit existing grammar files for company-specific terms and alternate return values
•Use scripts to add terms, create alternate returns, and load or unload grammar files on a screen or field-by-field basis
