    Chapter 3 Programming KBT-2002 Macro Keys 3.1 Introduction The KBT-2002 is equipped with programmable function keys (macro keys) that greatly enhances the operating interface. Macros, which are far more powerful than batch files; automate the most commonly used input sequences. They extend their functional reach within application pro- grams.

  • Page 21: Examples

    There ís an example within the subdirectory of the utility disk. Go into this subdirectory and look for a .txt file that corresponds to your worksta- tion, for example, AWS8420.txt. You can use this file under the macro key edit program to practice. Note 1: The keyboard translator utility main.exe pro- gram can be run under DOS mode only.
  • Page 22 Choose Load in the function and press the enter key. Key in the file name that you edited in this program before. To practice, you can choose, for example, the AWS8420.txt in the example in the utility disk. After read- ing the file, press Esc key to leave this mode.
  • Page 23 n this sub screen, you can key in any character string that you want to see when pressing this macro key, or any signs. You can also key in the names of the function keys of the keyboard; but please add a [ ] sigh. The number characters you key in should be under 78.
