Macro Keys

The options in this tab allows you to determine how modifier keys on your 8515 behave. For each modifier key—[ALT], [SHIFT], [CTRL], [ORANGE] and [BLUE]—you have the following options in the drop-down menu: Lock, OneShot, and OneShot/Lock.

Note:	Keep in mind that checking the taskbar lets you know whether or not these
	keys are locked on. For example, if the [ORANGE] key is locked ‘on’, the
	taskbar at the bottom of the screen displays it in uppercase charac-
	ters—ORANGE KEY. If this key is displayed in lowercase characters in the
	taskbar, you’ll know that the orange key is not locked. It will become inactive
	following a key press.

Important: Once you’ve assigned a One Shot mode to a modifier key, you need to tap on the OK button at the top of the tab to activate your selection.

Lock

If you choose Lock from the drop-down menu, pressing a modifier key once locks it ‘on’ until you press the modifier key a second time to unlock or turn it off.

OneShot

If you choose OneShot, the modifier key remains active only until the next key is pressed.

OneShot/Lock

OneShot/Lock allows you to combine these functions. When you choose this option and you press the modifier key once, it remains active only until the next key is pressed.

If you press the modifier key twice, it is locked ‘on’, remaining active until the modifier key is pressed a third time to turn it ‘off’.
