definition box for the input number you have chosen.

Use this same technique to define each of the inputs that you wish 
to  use  in  your  configuration.  In  addition  to  specifying  an  input 
to emulate a keystroke, inputs may also be defined as either the 
Left, Middle, or Right mouse button. Select Left, Middle, or Right 
mouse buttons when the keyboard selection diagram is shown to 
define an input as a mouse button.

Note that a Trackball need not be attached to emulate the mouse 
buttons. The KE-USB36 runs as both the mouse and the keyboard 
at  all  times.  If  no  Trackball  device  is  connected  to  the  unit,  no 
cursor  movement  will  be  initiated  from  the  KE-USB36,  but  the 
ability to emulate Left, Middle, or Right mouse buttons remains.

Any  input  defined  as  a  keystroke  may  also  be  combined  with 
a  Ctrl,  Alt,  or  Shift  function,  or  any  combination  of  those  three 
modifiers.  To  initiate  a  Shift  with  the  specified  keystroke,  simply 
check the box marked “Shift” on the same line as that input. For 
example, if you wish to emulate a Shift+F1 key, define the input 
as  an  “F1”  keystroke,  then  check  the  Shift  box  on  that  line.  An 
input with additional Ctrl,Alt, or Shift functions automatically has 
repeat disabled.

When  configured  as  shown  above,  Input  #1  would  perform  a 
Shift function along with the F1 keystroke. This combination would 
be the equivalent of holding down the shift key on your keyboard 
and then pressing F1.

Note that the Control, Alt, and Shift selection boxes are used in 
combination with a key. If an input is to emulate only a Control, 
Alt,  or  Shift,  do  not  use  these  check  boxes.  Use  the  keys  from 
the Key selection diagram to program an input as one of these 
modifiers keys (Control, Alt, or Shift).

If the input is to produce a repeated keystroke when held active, 
the  check  box  for  the  repeat  function  may  be  selected.  When 
active, the  repeat  function will perform a repeat  of the  selected 
key exactly how your standard keyboard would handle a key held 
down. The system settings dictate the repeat speed.

In  addition  to  defining  inputs,  there  are  two  check  boxes  for 
adjusting the Trackball movement. Based on the type of Trackball 
being used, one of the “Reverse Direction” check boxes may need 
to be selected to get the proper Left-Right or Up-Down movement 
from your Trackball.
