Table 5-3. Macros Edit Menu
Command Description
Teach
Allows you to record up to 105 keystrokes in a macro. When Teach is
selected, a graphic representation of the keypad currently in memory
displays. Menu bar choices are Exit, ASCII, and Click OFF. To access the
menu bar, use
F
1.
As usual, Exit returns you to the Macros menu. ASCII specifies the format
to display the keystrokes as they are entered. ASCII is the default setting.
The Click OFF choice is not supported.
To select a key to define, use the arrow keys to position the cursor on the
desired key and press
ENTER
. After you select a key, the utility records
every keystroke made on the external full-stroke keyboard. The keystrokes
are saved in a macro assigned to the chosen key. As the keystrokes are
entered, they are displayed using the chosen format.
ESC
stops recording and returns you to the Teach Menu, so you cannot
record the
ESC
key. However,
ESC
can be included in a macro by using the
editor.
Changes made to the macros in the Teach Menu are not programmed
until you select Download.
Edit
Displays a graphic representation of the keypad in memory and a menu
bar displaying Exit and Click OFF. Exit returns to the Macros menu. Click
OFF is not supported.
To select a key to edit, use the arrow keys to position the cursor on the
desired key and press
ENTER
. In edit mode, the macro is displayed as two
lines. The top line displays the macro in either hex or decimal format, and
is the line in which the editing takes place. The bottom line displays the
macro in ASCII format; this line is not user configurable. The bottom line
keeps track of which part of the macro being edited, and is updated by the
utility as editing takes place. The insert, delete, and cursor control keys on
the full-stroke keyboard are active for editing.
When a key is selected from the Edit Macro option, the menu bar displays
the following choices: Exit, Cut, Copy, Paste, Codes, Hex, and I/O
(Insert/Overtype). The macro for the chosen key is also displayed. To
access the menu bar, use
F
1. Use the Insert key on your full-stroke
external keyboard to toggle between insert and overtype mode.
Cut deletes a sequence of scan codes from the macro. To select a section
to cut:
Edit/Cut
1. Place the cursor on the first character to cut.
2. Press
F
1 (to access the menu bar choices) and select
CUT
.
3. Press
ENTER
. Cut should still be highlighted, but the cursor will appear
on the Edit line. Move the cursor on the last character to cut and press
ENTER
.
The last character of every macro is the end of the macro (EOM) and
cannot be deleted.
