The values set by this procedure are not effected by the Restore Default code but will be lost if

The reader can be used with terminals or PCs with various keyboard types and nationalities
through a simple keyboard setting procedure.
Keyboard setting consists of communicating to the reader how to send data corresponding to
the keyboard used in the application. The keys must be set in a specific order.
Press and release a key to set it.
Some characters may require more than one key pressed simultaneously during normal use
(refer to the manual of your PC or terminal for keyboard use). The exact sequence must be
indicated to the reader in this case pressing and releasing the different keys.
Example
If one has to press the "Shift" and "4" keys simultaneously on the keyboard to transmit the
character "$" to the video, to set the "$", press and release "Shift" then press and release "4".
Each pressed and released key must generate an acoustic signal on the reader, otherwise repress
the key. Never press more than one key at the same time, even if this corresponds to the normal
use of your keyboard.
Press "Backspace" to correct a wrong key entry. In this case the reader emits a wrong beep.
"CAPS LOCK" and "NUM LOCK" must be off before starting the keyboard set-
ting procedure. "SHIFT" must be repressed for each character and cannot be
substituted by "CAPS LOCK".
1. Read the "Set Alphanumeric Keys" code.

The reader signals the end of the procedure with 3 beeps indicating the keys
have been registered.
