7.8 B&R KCF Editor
The B&R KCF Editor can be used as a simple alternative to the B&R Key Editor. It can also be used to adapt
function keys and LEDs to the application software. In contrast to the B&R Key Editor, operation does not take
place using a graphical representation of the device, but via a simple Windows dialog box. The B&R KCF Editor
can therefore also be used for devices that are not yet supported in the B&R Key Editor. The B&R KCF Editor is a
"portable" application and can be started directly from a USB flash drive without installation on the target device,
for example. An installed ADI driver is required for the full range of functions.
