Modify the Registry using the Registry Editor. LXE recommends caution when editing the
Registry and also recommends making a backup copy of the registry before changes are made.
Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ Software \ LXE \ Scanner.
Set either the ScanCodeLeft or ScanCodeRight to be the scan code of the key to be used as the
virtual key when the Virtual Left key (Left Scan key) or Virtual Right key (Right Scan key) is
