Programming with the SmartSet App on Windows and Mac OS X
Customize keyboard layouts and settings with the convenient SmartSet Programming App.
To Launch the App: 1) open the v-Drive ( + F8), 2) locate and open the “FS PRO” removable
drive on your PC or Mac, then 3) double-click the version of the SmartSet App approriate for your
operating system (Note: It may take 10-15 seconds for the App to load).
Layouts
: The active layout will load automatically but any of the other 8 layouts can be loaded
manually using the Load button. The keyboard image shows the action assigned to each key
position for a given layout. To customize the layout, click any key position to designate the active
key (white outline). Use the Layer toggle-switch to navigate between the top layer and the Fn layer.
Remapping
: Designate an active key, then use the Pro to input the new key action, or select a
Special Action from the menu at right. Remapped keys are displayed in blue font.
Macros
: Designate an active key, then click the macro text box and type your macro (edit with the
Backspace and Clear buttons). Up to 3 macros can be assigned to each trigger key by selecting
one of the 3 radio buttons and then choosing one of the 6 modifier keys as a “co-trigger”. Using
the sliders, set a custom playback speed (use “G” for the global speed), or program the macro to
playback a fixed number of times (use “R” to repeat when held). Macro trigger keys are displayed
with a blue outline in the diagram. A maximum of 24 macros can be assigned to each layout.
Settings
: Use the App to adjust the Global Macro Playback Speed and the Status Report Playback
Speed (
Note: These settings are not layout-specific
).
Implementing Changes
: The App does not dynamically update the keyboard or reflect onboard
changes since launch. To implement your changes, first click Save or Save As. Then use the
Refresh onboard shortcut ( + Layout), or close the App and then close the v-Drive ( + F8).
