SHORTCUT UTILITY (RWM.EXE)

The feature of this RWM.EXE is designed mainly for the off-line

programming purpose and is very useful in quick reproduction of the preprogrammed

contents of the programmable keyboard. In such application, the user should have

either the preprogrammed keyboard or the preprogrammed file with “.tpl” extension

name which is the result of the keyboard programming. The user may use RWM.EXE

to directly transfer the programmed result of the programmable keyboard to a “.tpl”

file or directly transfer a prestored “.tpl” file to a programmable keyboard without

entering the utility “KBM.EXE” which may take more keystrokes. For instance, the

user wants to transfer a file “XXX.tpl”, which was saved before, to the programmable

keyboard, he/she should type in following command in subdirectory “POSIFLEX.D”:

RWM XXX.tpl

(enter)

This operation is quite recommended to be performed on a daily basis to

ensure the system stability.

On the other hand, when the user wants to save the contents of a programmed

keyboard, e.g. when he/she newly receives a programmable keyboard, to a file named

“YYY.tpl”, he/she should type in following command in subdirectory

“POSIFLEX.D”:

RWM –r YYY.tpl

(enter)

In this application, the user must be careful on the housekeeping of these

template files and never mix such files with those originated from other

programmable keyboard. In other words, transferring a file generated from other

programmable keyboard to KB136 could mess up the data format inside KB136, and

vice versa.
