Comment
The individual entries like X key co-ordinate and Y key co-ordinate must be separated by a
space.
Key co-ordinates
This matrix co-ordinate specifies the key to be defined. Fig. 7, page 63 in the appendix shows
all the SCD 1297-K keys and their co-ordinates.
Key number
The key number refers to the equivalent MF2 key. Fig. 8, page 64 in the appendix shows the
key numbers for a standard MF2 keyboard.
Only key numbers are exchanged between a computer and a keyboard. The definition of a
key, i.e., whether a “Z” or a “Y” appears on the screen is determined by tables (keyboard
drivers) stored in the computer.
Flags
The flags define specific behavior, e.g., which control key should also be activated when this
key is pressed:
R,r
Right Shift-key
L,l
Left Shift- key
G,g
AltGr- key
A,a
Alt- key
C,c
Control- key / Strg- key
T,t
Auto repeat, Typematic
