correct keyboard ame. The layout of selected keyboard will be displayed.
5. Preparing the Template
The utility starts with a bla k template (all key defi itio s are bla k). A existi g
template ca be brought i to the utility as a starti g poi t for editi g. There are 3 ways
to get existi g template files i to the utility -- “LOAD” from a .TPL file, “IMPORT” from a
.TXT file, or “READ” from the Keyboard that co tai s the previously programmed
template). Refer to sectio below for details of editi g key defi itio s. Whe key editi g
is do e, co figure properties of the keyboard i the “Properties” dialog if ecessary (see
sectio “MODIFYING PROPERTIES” for details). For the programmable keyboards with
optio al i tegrated mag etic stripe reader, also co figure the MSR properties, Both
keyboard a d MSR programmi g data will be saved i to a si gle template file.
6. Writing into the Key oard
It is stro gly advised that the template should be first saved i to a .TPL template file for
future refere ce a d for programmi g multiple keyboards. After savi g the file, click
Configuration→Write into KB o the Me u bar or click o the “Dow Arrow” ico
o the toolbar to write the template i to the keyboard.

EDITING KEY DEFINITIONS
1. Selecting Keys to Edit
Use Shift Key a d the Arrows Keys o the sta dard keyboard to select the key for
editi g. Hold dow the shift key a d hit the arrow keys u til the key to be edited is bei g
highlighted.
2. Checking Key Definitions
The curre t key defi itio is show o the si gle li e “Key Co te t” text box below the
keyboard layout.
3. Selecting Programming Modes
Programmi g mode is selectable for each i dividual key. Select the key to be edited a d
the click o Key Edit me u or the ico o the toolbar to select the desired
mode. Note that switchi g betwee modes will clear origi al co te t of the key.
Scan Code Mode
 Key defi itio e tered as Sca Codes (codes that are se t by a sta dard
keyboard to the PC)
 Allow e try of special key fu ctio s (e.g. F1 to F12, Shift, Ctrl, Alt, Arrows
Keys, Wi dows Keys, Caps Lock, NumLock, Number pad keys, etc.)
 Emulate exact key operatio seque ces.
 Upper/Lower case status depe ds o Caps Lock a d Shift key status.
ASCII Code Mode
• Key defi itio e tered as ASCII stri g of characters.
• Simplify programmi g for e try of text stri g i the key defi itio (e.g. for
e teri g logi ames, passwords, item ames etc.) Note that if the text
stri g is case se sitive, it is better to e able the “Use <Alt>+ umber key
to make ASCII code” optio i the Configuration→Config KB
Properties me u.
• Se d out ASCII codes i RS232 mode (optio al i terface). Note that keys
programmed with Sca Code mode will se d out Sca Codes via the
RS232 port. If actual ASCII codes are required, all keys have to be
programmed i ASCII mode. I this case, special fu ctio keys ca ot be
programmed.
• Special key fu ctio s that are ot part of sta dard ASCII code (e.g. F1 to
F12, Shift, Ctrl, Alt, Arrows Keys, Wi dows Keys etc.) ca ot be
programmed i ASCII mode.
• Decimal equivale t umeric values for ASCII codes (o ly 1 to 240
allowed) ca be directly e tered.
• ASCII mode ca also be used to e ter Sca Codes by e teri g the key
toke ames.
4. Entering Key Definitions
Scan Code Mode
• I Sca Code mode, pressi g a key will e ter that key i the defi itio
a d show as the key ame e closed betwee square brackets, [ ].

5
Keyboard Programming Utility User Guide Logic Controls, Inc.
• For special fu ctio keys, use <ESC> a d <Fu ctio Key> to e ter their
sca code i this mode. For example, to program <F9> i to the key
positio , hit <ESC> first, followed by <F9>. To program <ESC>, hit
<ESC> twice.
• Si ce the followi g 4 keys are used by Wi dows, we ca ot use <ESC> +
<Fu ctio Key> to program these keys: <F6>, <F10>, <Alt>,
<Pri tScree >. These keys have to be programmed i ASCII mode by
e teri g the key toke ames.
• The sca codes for multiple keys e tered i to o e key will act as if all the
keys were pressed co secutively without releasi g the previous o e. At
the same time these keys will be released whe the key at the
programmable keyboard is released. Thus, to program <Shift-F2>, just
e ter <ESC>, <Shift>, <ESC> <F2>. To program <Ctrl-A>, just e ter
<ESC>, <Ctrl>, <a>.
• If a certai key has to act as if it is released (key up) withi the
programmi g stri g before the actual key is released, “release codes”
have to be i serted ma ually:
o For regular keys (i cludi g Shift, RightShift, a d Ctrl), i sert <ESC> &
<f> followed by the key to be “released”. For example, to simulate
press a d release of the <b> key, e ter <b>, <ESC>, <f>, <b>.
Whe <ESC> & <f> is e tered, the display will show [0F0]. To release
<Ctrl> key, e ter <ESC>, <f>, <ESC>, <Ctrl>.
o There are some keys that eed special code combi atio s. For
example, to release the <RightCtrl> key,use
<ESC>,<e>,<ESC>,<f>,<ESC>,<Ctrl>. It will be show as
“[0E0][0F0][Ctrl]”.
o For releasi g <Alt> a d <RightAlt>, type i [0F0][Alt] or
[0E0][0F0][RightAlt] directly i ASCII mode.
• More examples o page 12.
ASCII Code Mode
• I ASCII mode, pressi g a regular key will e ter that key i the defi itio
a d be show as a stri g of characters. Special fu ctio keys will be
ig ored or used to co trol e try of data (e.g. Backspace will erase
previous character).
• There are some special codes used i ASCII code mode:
o [Caps] Emulates fu ctio of CapsLock key. Used i RS232 mode to
emulate Caps Lock fu ctio for POS keyboards. To i sert [Caps]
fu ctio , click o the ico o the toolbar.
o [CR] Carriage Retur code. Used i RS232 mode to emulate <E ter>
fu ctio .
o [[ E ters the character ‘[‘ character.
o ]] E ters the character ‘]’ character.
o [Separator] Separator Code used i Multi-level defi itio . Used to
separate several defi itio s codes that work i combi atio with Multi-
shift-level fu ctio key. Click o ico to i sert a Level Separator
Code.

o [ShiftLevel*] Multi-shift-level fu ctio key defi itio for differe t shift
levels (* is from 1 to 9). To defi e a Multi-shift-level fu ctio key, click
o the ico a d e ter the level umber.
• Decimal equivale t umeric values for ASCII codes (o ly 1 to 240
allowed) ca be e tered directly by clicki g o the ico o the tool bar
or Key Edit→Enter ASCII Code o the me u bar. After code e try, the
ASCII code will be show as a ormal character or as blocks if the code
is a o -displayable character. To view the decimal value, click o the
ico o the tool bar or Key Edit→Switch ASCII Display mode o the
me u bar. The decimal value will be show as [xxx].
• Special Fu ctio keys a d sca codes ca also be e tered i ASCII code
mode by e teri g the toke ames of the keys as a character stri g. For
example, to defi e a key to press a d release <a>, e ter the stri g
“[A][0F0][A]”. However, ASCII code a d Sca code should NOT be mixed
together i o e key.
o Each key is e tered as a character stri g e closed betwee square
brackets, [ ]. For example, [Ctrl], [Alt], [E ter], [A], [B], [1], [2], [=],
[PAD3], [ESC] etc.
o Full List of all toke ames of the keys ca be fou d at e d of this
me u or click o Help→Key Word List

DELIMITED TEXT TEMPLATE FILE
The ew programmable keyboard utility ca import a d export a delimited text file directly. The
text file may have two colum s a d as ma y rows as umber of keys (See the example .TXT
file i the utility diskette). Colum s are delimited by commas a d rows are delimited by <E ter>.
The first colum is key’s ame that will appear o the utility’s key layout scree . These ames
ca be also cha ged. The seco d colum is key’s defi itio .
• All rules a d limitatio s o key defi itio s apply.
• Do ot mix Sca Code a d ASCII defi itio s.
• As the characters ‘[‘, ‘]’, ‘\’ a d ‘,’ have special mea i gs or fu ctio s, whe they
are used i the text file i the key ame label field or key defi itio co te t field,
followi g format has to be used:
[ - [[
] - ]]
\ - \\
, - \,
Importing a Delimited Text File
• Use a y text editor (e.g. Notepad) to create/edit a text file or use the Export Text
Data fu ctio to co vert the curre tly loaded template i to a text file.
• Start the utility a d click o Template→Import Text Data.
• E ter the text file ame a d hit <E ter>.
• If the file is ot imported correctly, check if the text file has 2 colum s a d the umber of
row is equal to the umber of key i programmable keyboard. Also check the proper
format of ‘[‘, ‘]’, ‘\ ’ a d ‘,’.
Exporting a Delimited Text File
• The simplest way to create a properly formatted template text file is to use the
Export fu ctio .
• Start the utility a d edit a ew template, load from .TPL template file or read from
keyboard.
• Click o Template→Export Text Data.
• E ter the text file ame a d hit <E ter>.
• The exported text file will have key ame labels curre tly used o the scree .
The ame label field i the text file ca the be edited with a y text editor. Whe
the ew text file is imported the ext time, the edited key ames will be used as a
label o the scree . (Note that loadi g a .TPL template file will ot cha ge the
key labels).

PROGRAMMING EXAMPLES
1. Special Features
To program key seque ce <Ctrl-A> the <F9>, the <Ctrl> key eed to be released
before pressi g <F9>. Otherwise, the defi itio will be i terpreted as <Ctrl-A>, <Ctrl-
F9>.
• [Ctrl][A][0F0][Ctrl][F9]
2. Multi-Shift-Level Function
This fu ctio programs a key that co tai s several levels of defi itio s such as “Small
Coke”, “Medium Coke”, “Large Coke”. Whe pressi g this key, the actual output will be
a y of the 3 stri gs. We may call this a multi-defi itio key.
• Small Coke[Separator]Medium Coke[Separator]Large Coke. Two other keys are
programmed as the Multi-Shift-Level fu ctio keys, Level 1 a d Level 2.
• [ShiftLevel1]
• [ShfitLevel2]
If the multi-defi itio key is pressed alo e, message “Small Coke” will be se t out. If
the [ShiftLevel1] key is held dow a d the multi-defi itio key is pressed, message
“Medium Coke” will be se t out. If the [ShiftLevel2] key is held dow a d the multi-
defi itio key is pressed, message “Large Coke” will be se t out.
3. Inter-string Delay
Sometimes, whe a key is pressed, the applicatio software takes time to respo d
before the ext key ca be pressed. For example, after pressi g <F2>, wait 1 seco d
before e teri g <3> a d <E ter>.
• [F2][Delay1][3][E ter]
4. Starting a Windows Program y pressing a Key on the Programma le Key oard
To start a Wi dows Program, the [Wi ] key is used activate the Start me u a d the
Ru comma d is used. Note that the whole key defi itio has to be do e with Sca
Code mode. Break codes have to be i serted where ecessary to allow Wi dows to
recog ize the comma d stri g correctly. For example, release Wi key, Shift keys a d
to e ter more tha o e stroke of the same key (e.g. 00). To ru a program i path
“C:\Program Files\Test\Demo001.exe”, the followi g key defi itio is required:
• [Wi ][0E0][0F0][Wi ][R][C][Shift][;][0F0][Shift][\][P][R][O][G][R][A][M][Space][F][I][L][E][S][\][
