Remapping from embedded level to top level
You can copy an “embedded” key action (such as a “Windows” key) to the top level to make
it more convenient. Simply turn on the keypad layer before activating remapping mode. Tap
the Keypad key after tapping the source key and before tapping the destination key.
Inactivating a key action by remapping
The embedded Caps Lock key is a “null” key (it has no action). You may remap this “null”
action to a key that you want to inactivate.
Macros
Macros are shortcuts and time savers. They allow you to reduce keystrokes for awkward,
complex, or repetitive tasks. With On-board Programmability, creating and using macros are
always the same, independent of the program or computer you are using.
Creating a macro ( F11 )
To create a macro, hold down the Program key and tap F11 , then release both keys. The
keyboard’s lights will begin flashing rapidly. First select a “trigger key” (the key or
combination of keys that will initiate playback of the macro). The lights will begin flashing
slowly. Now type the key or keys that will comprise the body of the macro. When you have
finished, hold the
Program key and tap F11 . The lights should stop flashing on the first tap. If
not, you have added F11 to the end of your macro and you should reprogram your macro.
Macro modifier keys and macro trigger keys
Macros may be triggered by a single key or by a combination with one of the top four thumb-
activated keys, factory-legended (left to right) as Command, Alt-Option, Ctrl, and Comand. A
modifier key alone may not be a trigger key unless combined with another (non-modifier) key.
If you want to use a modifier key by itself to trigger a macro, first remap it. The best source
action to remap the modifier is the embedded
Capslock ( null ) key action.
If you create a macro using one of the top four thumb keys as a modifier, the mirror image key
on the other side of the keyboard will also serve to trigger the same macro.
Example: You program a macro triggered by the key above PageUp (normally legended Ctrl)
in combination with the letter a. You can then play that macro by holding either the key above
PageUp or the key above Home, in combination with the letter a.
Activating or disabling stored macros ( F10 )
If you want to temporarily regenerate the default actions of keys that have been programmed
to trigger macros, hold
Progrm and tap F10 to disable all macros. Repeat the same sequence
to reactivate all macros. No lights will flash but any stored macros will be activated.
