Sometimes a link button will link to more than one softkey
menu. In this case, its button text is formatted as [#] – Links
where # represents the total number of menus to which it links.
Clicking such a link button invokes a dialog which contains one
link button per every possible target menu. The button’s tool-tip
will also display the complete list of target softkey menus.
10.5 Configuring Softkeys to Execute (CCL)
Command Script Macros
The KBD-SFTCFG allows users to configure softkeys on menus
80 and 83 – 94 to activate (CCL) Command Scripts on Allegiant
matrix switcher/controller systems.
These menus are organized so that 83 – 94 must be accessed
through 80. The softkeys on 80 can be configured as either a
Command Script or a link to a predetermined menu (83 – 94).
10.5.1 Assigning Macros
Any softkey on menus 80 and 83 – 94 can be assigned to execute
a Command Script macro if it has a macro button. Clicking the
macro button so that it’s in its down state will allow the user to
enter a 6-digit (normal) macro in the accompanying edit box.
The softkey can also be configured as a 2-digit offset macro by
clicking the small keypad button so that its in its down state. When
offset macros are executed on the keyboard, the user is expected to
enter an additional 4-digit number to complete the macro.
See Appendix C for more information on Command Script
macros.
Refer to the Allegiant PC Software Manual and the Allegiant
Command Console Language (CCL) Manual for more
information on writing Command Script macros.
10.5.2 Organizing IntuiKey Configuration (.int) Files per
Allegiant Server (.alg) Files
If the optional Allegiant software is installed on the PC, each
IntuiKey Configuration (.int) file (which may contain several
language tables) can be associated with a single Allegiant Server
(.alg) filename. This is done so the user who’s configuring softkeys
to execute Command Script macros can quickly refer back to the
Allegiant Server (.alg) file that contains those Command Scripts.
Since only one Allegiant Server (.alg) filename can be stored in an
IntuiKey Configuration (.int) file, it’s recommended that
Command Script macro assignments to softkeys across all language
tables in the .int file be limited to those appearing in the .alg file.
Organizing .int files (collections of language tables) in this way will
prevent confusion after several .int files are eventually created.
10.6 Uploading Language Tables
When a language table is uploaded from a keyboard, it can either be
uploaded into a new language table (which is added to the bottom
of the tree control) or uploaded into an existing language table.
When a keyboard language table is uploaded into a new table, all
of the descriptive text in its form views will appear in English.
E.g., if a Spanish language table is uploaded as a new table, its
Spanish text will be described with English captions.
When a keyboard language table is uploaded into an existing
table, the existing table’s descriptive text remains unchanged.
