In general, an unshifted, printable character uses 3 bytes and a modified
code uses more than 3 bytes.
The following guidelines apply when editing definitions of the
programmable keys.
•
Commands are limited to 20 shifted or 21 unshifted printable
characters.
•
Avoid entering shifted and unshifted characters in a definition. Using
both in a definition requires more memory.
The utility does not allow you to:
•
enter definition for a programmable key that exceeds 64 bytes
• enter multiple key codes for a programmable key that is make/break
typematic.
To edit the definition of a programmable key:
1. Select a single programmable key.
2. Choose Key Configuration from the Edit menu.
Or click the right mouse button on the key and choose Key
Configuration from the popup menu.
A dialog shows the current definition of the programmable key.
Nonprintable key codes appear in brackets, for example, or
<(L)Shift+F1>. Modifiers appear to the left of a “+” symbol.
