The IMS Terminal features the capability of programming up to 10 function keys, a feature typically found in more advanced terminal programs. These can be set to provide quick access to commonly used MDrive Immediate mode commands, execute programs, or even hold entire MDrive programs as there is no character limit for each function.

A fly-out dialog can be brought up by clicking the arrow on the right of the function key “Contents” field. This enables the programmer to embed common ASCII control codes in the function key text string.

To access the function key setup dialog, right-click the function key area on the terminal window. To setup the function keys:

1] Enter a caption in the “Caption” text field, this will be displayed on the function button.

2] Enter the text string consisting of MDrive Motion Control commands and ASCII control codes. Remember to terminate each command with a line feed (^M) and an appropriate pause time (typically 50 msec, ^p).

3] Click “Done” to set the function.
