ADVANCED PROGRAMMING
The LK7000 POS keyboard can be programmed with all special control and function keys such as the Shift, Ctrl, Alt, F1 through F12, and the up/ down/left/right arrow keys. The procedure to program these special keys is shown below:
1.Start the LK7000 utility program.
2.Select the cell to be programmed. Press F8 to enter the scan- code mode. The “code type” information changes from ASCII to
SCAN.
NOTE: The scan-code mode will only be active for this cell. You must select F8 for each cell you want to program with scan-code information.
3.Under the scan-code mode, each alphanumeric character is enclosed in parenthesis. For special function or control keys, press ESC (three vertical bars will be present) followed by the special function or control key you want to program.
For example, to program the INS (insert) key, press ESC and then the INS key on the 101 keyboard. To program the ESC key, simply press the ESC key twice. Special function and control keys will not appear inside parenthesis. The three vertical bars will disappear once the special function key is depressed.
4.You may return to the start-up graphic screen (short menu) by pressing Ctrl-Alt-F4again.
NOTES:
1)Special function keys require ESC as the leading code. In the scan-code mode, you can view the symbol of the special key or the hex code equivalent of the special key. To view, simply press F7 to toggle between symbol and hex modes.
2)Once a special function key (shift, ctrl, alt, etc.) is programmed it may be necessary to un-select the function. To do so, press in sequence ESC, f (lower case F), 0 (zero), ESC, followed by the special function key (shift, ctrl alt, etc.)
3)Any given programmable location may be toggled between scan-code mode and ASCII- code mode. Pressing the F8 key on the keyboard will change the cell’s programming mode to scan-code mode. Pressing F9 on the keyboard will change the cell’s programming mode to ASCII-code mode. Changing modes in a cell that has been previously programmed will erase all the information in that cell.
4)To enter hex scan-codes directly, press ESC followed by the 2-digit hex number. For example, to program the CTRL key press ESC followed by 1D. The LK7000 program will add the leading zero
