PROGRAMMING THE KB5000 KEYBOARD
The following procedure will show you how to program the KB5000
with standard (keyboard) alphanumeric characters. The keyboard
can be programmed with either ASCII or Scan code information. The
default mode is the ASCII code mode. The following procedure
assumes both a KB5000 keyboard and a 101 keyboard are attached.
NOTE:
To run this program you must exit windows completely.
Do not shell out from Windows.
1. With the correct programming graphics present. Select the cell
you want to program by using the arrow keys on the 101 keyboard.
The Up and Down arrows will select the row while the Shift and
either the Right or Left arrow key will select the column.
2. Enter your programming text via the 101 keyboard. Continue
programming until all the keys are programmed. It is not necessary
to program all the keys for the KB5000 to function properly. The
maximum number of alphanumeric characters that can be
programmed for any one key is limited only by the memory left.
NOTE:
The maximum number of alphanumeric characters that
can be programmed per standard keyboard is 1856.
3. Press F2 to call up the Data Transfer Menu. There will be
several choices to choose from.
4. Type W to write the programmed data into the KB5000’s non
volatile memory. A “Writing Data” screen will open showing the
percentage of memory written. It will take approximately 7 seconds
to copy the data into the keyboard.
