6.19.1 Trigger Mappings

A trigger mapping is an association between a particular key on the keyboard and a driver or application, the module(s)– sometimes referred to as “trigger consumer(s)”–of the trigger source. Along with keyboard keys, trigger sources can also be grip triggers, external hardware triggers or software-based. When the specified key is pressed, the trigger consumer (for example, a decoded scanner) is sent a message.

Important: It is not possible to have two or more identical mappings—for example [F1] cannot be mapped to the Non-Decoded Scanner twice—even if the trigger type is different.

A keyboard key that is used as a trigger source will no longer gen- erate key data or perform its normal function. For example, if the space button is used as a trigger source, it will not be able to send space characters to applications.
