After this disassembly, there are three cables coming from the inside of the PST system, namely, a 2 pin cable for the standby LED, a 4 pin cable for KB signal and a DIN 5 pin cable for the external KB connector.
  • Page 18: Utility Installation

Installation procedures are required for utilities “KBM.EXE”...
  • Page 19: Input The Content To Be Programmed

    PROGRAMMING HOT KEY PROGRAMMING The KB136 programmable keyboard supports the “hot key programming” method which is most useful in instant modification of a few keys in a preprogrammed keyboard without entering the more sophisticated programming utility. Of course, the user may also use this feature to program through out all 51 keys (3 rows, 17 columns) by 5 pages (LP and L1 to L4) at will.
  • Page 20: Input The Content To Be Programmed

    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.
  • Page 21: Exit "Hot Key Programming" Mode

    EXIT “HOT MODE After the intended content of the key is completely entered, the user shall press the “hot key” again to notify the end of “hot key programming”. The programmable keyboard will give one beep to signify the normal exit of the “hot key programming” mode.
  • Page 22: Programming Utility (Kbm.exe)

    PROGRAMMING UTILITY (KBM.EXE) GENERAL Using the “KBM” utility for KB136 is quite similar to the way to use the “KBM” utility for KB112 though they may be of different versions and should be used distinctively. However, the screen display for KB136 is different from that for KB112 as the physical layout is different.
