7.6 KCF Editor
The KCF Editor can be used as a simple alternative to the Key Editor. It can
also be used to adapt function keys and LEDs to the application software. In
contrast to the Key Editor, operation does not take place using a graphical
representation of the device, but via a simple Windows dialog box. The KCF
Editor can therefore also be used for devices that are not yet supported in
the Key Editor. The KCF Editor is a "portable" application and can be started
directly from a USB flash drive without installation on the target device, for
example.
An installed ADI driver is required for the full range of functions.
Features:
•
Configuration of normal keys like on a keyboard (A, B, C, etc.)
•
Special key functions (change brightness, etc.)
•
Assignment of LED functions (HDD access, power, etc.)
•
4 assignments possible per key (using layers)
•
Configuration of the panel lock time when connecting several Automation Panel devices to B&R PCs.
•
Export and import of the configuration (via INI files)
•
Save configuration as report (text file)
If the KCF Editor is running on the target device and the ADI driver is installed, the following additional features
are available:
•
Panel and key detection
•
LED test
•
Download/Upload the configuration
For detailed instructions about configuring keys and LEDs and installing the key configuration on the target system,
see the user documentation for the KCF Editor. The KCF Editor and user documentation can be downloaded at
no cost from the Downloads section of the B&R website (
).
