Response Data:
Offset Field Name Description
0 Key Usage ID The value of the USB key usage ID that is
mapped to the given ASCII value. For
example, for the United States keyboard
map, usage ID 56 (0x38) (keyboard / and
?) is mapped to ASCII character ‘?’.
1 Key Modifier Byte The value of the USB key modifier byte
that is mapped to the given ASCII value.
For example, for the United States
keyboard map, modifier byte 0x02 (left shift
key) is mapped to ASCII character ‘?’.

SET KEYMAP ITEM COMMAND
Command number:
4
Description: This command is used to set a key map item of the active key map. The
active key map is determined by the active key map property. Data from a
card or check is a sequence of ASCII characters. These ASCII characters
are mapped to key strokes and these key strokes are sent to the host to
represent the ASCII character. The key map maps a single ASCII
character to a single USB key usage ID and USB key modifier byte. The
key usage ID and the key modifier byte are transmitted to the host via USB
to represent the ASCII character. The ASCII value is the value of the
ASCII character to be transmitted to the host. See an ASCII table for the
values of the ASCII character set. The USB key usage ID is a unique
value assigned to every keyboard key. For a list of all key usage IDs see
Appendix E. The key modifier byte modifies the meaning of the key
usage ID. The modifier byte indicates if any combination of the right or
left Ctrl, Shift, Alt or GUI keys are pressed at the same time as the key
usage ID. For a list and description of the key modifier byte see
Appendix F. Once a key map item is modified, the changes take effect
immediately. However, the changes will be lost if the device is reset or
power cycled. To make the changes permanent, the save custom key map
command must be issued. To use the new custom key map after a reset or
power cycle, the active key map property must be set to custom.
