Kinesis FSMJ4 Savant Elite Programmable Foot Pedal - Manual (Page 15)

If you exceed the maximum number of keystrokes allowed (which is highly unlikely), the
red light will come on and the green light will stop flashing. All keystrokes will be lost in the
pedal being programmed. Each pedal can hold approximately 750 keystrokes, but the total
available for all three pedals is approximately 1200 keystrokes.
Repeating actions when holding down pedal
Normally a single keyboard action stored in a pedal will repeat if the pedal is held down. The
repeat rate and repeat delay properties will be the same as for your keyboard, and are set in
the control panel. In contrast, a macro (multiple key actions stored in a pedal) does not repeat.
To force either a single key or a macro to repeat slowly, when programming a pedal you
would enter "Esc - LShift" before typing the macro key actions. More specifically, hold the
Esc key, tap L-Shift, then release both keys. This slow repeat mode is not modulated by the
keyboard repeat delay or repeat rate in the control panel.
Other special key sequences
A number of key sequence including Esc can be used to provide special settings or mouse
button actions. Your computer will generate a brief "trilling" sound when the pedal is pressed
to conclude successful programming of one of these actions. Also, the green LED may be
flashing rapidly at that point. You may press a pedal to continue programming (the LED will
change to a steady slow flash, waiting for a pedal to be selected for programming), or simply
move the slide switch back to the right ("play mode") and the LED will change to steady on.
Erasing programming
Any foot switch pedal may be simply re-programmed with new key actions which will
replace those previously programmed. However, two other options are available to erase a
pedal or the entire device.
Erase a pedal and leave it blank
To erase a pedal and leave it blank, enter programming mode, press and release the pedal to
be erased, then slowly press and release the Esc key on the keyboard three times. Then tap the
pedal again and slide the switch to the right.
To erase the entire foot switch
To erase the entire foot switch memory and leave it blank, enter programming mode and tap
any pedal. On your keyboard, press and release Esc, then tap Backspace, then slowly tap Esc
three more times. Tap the pedal again and slide the switch back to the right.
