Programming the PC Presenter

This section describes how to program the PC Presenter. Before programming, make sure the PC
Presenter is properly installed:
There are two primary ways to use the PC Presenter: Stand-alone operation (not connected to
AXlink), and AXlink operation. In stand-alone mode, the PC Presenter controls PC keyboard and
mouse functions. Connected to a Central Controller via AXlink, the PC Presenter can control
devices on the AXlink bus.
For information on installing the PC Presenter, refer to the Installing the PC Presenter for AXlink
Operation section.

Programming the PC Presenter in Stand Alone Mode

The PC Presenter has two modes of programming in stand-alone mode: command mode, in which
you give specific commands to the PC Presenter, and programming mode, in which you assign
specific PC keystrokes to pushbuttons on the transmitter.

Using PC Presenter Commands

the commands, list the keycodes stored in PC Presenter memory (in both short and long form),
display the amount of memory available in the PC Presenter, and display firmware version and
