Output delays, data entry during macro playback (
F8, F7
)
Two special features are useful for advanced macro programming. Macros can be
programmed to pause briefly during playback, in half second intervals. While programming
the macro, enter
F8
for each half second delay that you want to insert.
To program a macro which pauses during playback to allow you to enter variable data, insert
F7
while programming the macro. When you play the macro, it will pause until you
perform a second
F7
. Use this option cautiously since while running this macro and
waiting for the second
F7
input, normal programming commands will not work.
Customizing a foot switch action
If you have a single Kinesis foot switch, you can use it to “shift” the embedded keypad to the
active state. If you have a Kinesis Triple Action foot switch the other default actions are
Shift
and
Keypad Enter
. You can also customize any foot switch just like it was another keyboard
key.
Mouse button actions
Most operating systems support a utility called "Mousekeys" which converts the
Keypad 5
key
to perform the left mouse button action. If
Keypad 5
is remapped to your foot pedal you can
click the mouse with your foot. See your operating system's control panel and/or help files to
learn more.
Remapping the Keypad Toggle action
The
Keypad Shift
action cannot be moved or copied to another location. However, a
Keypad
Toggle
action can be created by remapping if you have a foot switch. Remap a key or pedal
twice using the
Keypad Shift
pedal as the source action. Start with the keypad LED off, then
remap again after tapping the
Keypad
function key to activate the embedded layer.
