key while pressing the “PRT SC” (“Print Screen”) key on the PC or PS-2 keyboard.
And by doing so, the KB136 will give 2 beeps to notify that it is ready to receive the
identification of which key to be programmed. Right after the “hot key” is released,
the user shall press the key to be programmed on the programmable keyboard once to
identify which key to be programmed. If the “hot key” is pressed for the second time
or the “esc” key is pressed prior to the press of the key on the programmable
keyboard, this mode will be aborted immediately. The user should not enter the “hot
key programming” mode when the programmable keyboard is already fully loaded
(no more free memory for further programming) by the key contents previously
programmed.
INPUT THE CONTENT TO BE
PROGRAMMED
Once the programmable keyboard enters the “hot key programming” mode
with the key to be programmed identified, what the user types on the standard PC or
PS-2 keyboard will be taken for the content to be programmed into that key of the
programmable keyboard till the user exits the “hot key programming” mode.
The legal input in this mode includes all alphabetical letters (including both
upper and lower cases), numerical digits (applicable only for keys at the area above
the alphabetical keys and excluding those on the numerical keypad), symbols (such as
`!”#$ and excluding those arithmetic signs in the numerical keypad) and the “enter”
key. The “shift” key, the “caps lock” key and the “back space” key are also accepted
in this mode to serve an editing purpose (for example, pressing “back space” will
erase the last character of the input instead of being treated as a character for input).
Pressing the “esc” key in this mode will abort the “hot key programming” mode
immediately. All the rest keys (such as the “Ctrl”, “Alt”, “Home”, any function key or
arrow key or any key in the numerical keypad) on the standard PC or PS-2 keyboard
are illegal inputs in this mode. The maximum number of key presses acceptable to any
key by “hot key programming” is 32.
All the input from the standard PC or PS-2 keyboard in this mode will also be
sent to the host computer. Any key press from the predefined or programmed KB136
for data input in “hot key programming” is prohibited.
