Numeric
Pad
Submenu
The numeric pad submenu
is
very similar to the
editing key submenu.
It
lets you change the char-
acters sent
by
the keys in the numeric keypad. You
can reprogram all the unshifted keys.
(On the
ASCII keyboard numeric pad, you can also repro-
gram the shifted
Tab,
CE, and
Enter
keys.) The
DIRECTION field lets you specify the destination
of
the shifted keys. Your application program can
also do this reprogramming, but cannot specify
destination
of
the key codes.
The following steps tell how
to reprogram the
numeric keypad keys. Procedures similar
to
repro-
grammingthe function keys are notrepeated in full
here; refer
to
the instructions for reprogramming
function keys for a complete explanation.
