Keyboard memory
All functions except the repetition rate and the change of WASD keys are
stored in the keyboard and are available on boot up.
Profile
The LK12 keyboard has 3 profiles which are stored in the hardware and can
be selected with the
<M1> -<M3>
keys. Each profile stores macro assign-
ments and color settings separately. This makes the settings available on other
computers as well. An additional profile can be called up via the software:
the [game profile], only in this, macros can be bound directly to keystrokes
and changes to the arrow and WASD keys can be made.
Changing WASD keys
With the key combination
<FN>+ < >
the arrow keys can be switched
with the WASD keys. Repeating the command will reverse the change. For
this purpose the
[game profile]
must be selected in the software.
Macros
Macros are strings of key inputs, which are then played back with the push
of a button. These macros are available on any PC from the internal memory,
without needing to install additional software locally.
The standard layout of the six macro keys are the key combinations
<CTRL + 1>- <CTRL + 6>
.
The default macro mode is quick macro. This means that all inputs are always
played back by the keyboard as quickly as possible. The other macro mode is
the timing macro, in which the inputs are played back with the same timing
with which they were recorded. The timing macro mode can only be activa-
ted via software programming.
Record a macro directly from the keyboard
Select the
[Game profile]
via the software
1. Press
<FN> + <Insert>
to begin the macro recording. The backlighting
of the keys will now be turned off and the LEDs above the NumPad will
begin to flash.
2. Now one of the six macro buttons can be selected for assignment
(
<G1> - <G6>
).
3. The LEDs above the NumPad now light up permanently.
4. Now enter any string of keystrokes and end the recording by pressing
<FN> + <Insert>
again.
5. The recording has been saved and can now be tested.
For more convenient recording and macro management, the LK12 software
can be used. This is the only way to access the timing macro mode.
Using macros
Pressing a macro key once (
<G1>- <G6>
) causes the stored macro to be
retrieved. If in this time another button is pressed, the macro stops.
