If the keyboard behaves strangely or you just want to re-create the factory settings, the first\nthing to try is a memory reset.\nIf you have the Advantage Pro model, be sure the memory locking switch (see drawing later in this chapter) is to the right (unlocked).\n\u201cInstant Configuration\u201d settings are not affected by resetting the keyboards \u201cOn-board\nProgrammability\u201d features.\nTwo different memory reset procedures are available:<\/p>\n
\n
Memory reset, Option One (Progrm + Shift + F10<\/tt>)<\/h2>\n
This procedure will erase all remapping and macros, but will not change macro memory\nsettings or switch Dvorak back to QWERTY.\nPress and hold the Progrm key, then add one of the Shift keys, and finally add the F10<\/tt> function key so that all three keys are depressed.\nThe lights on the keyboard should begin flashing.\nRelease the keys and when the flashing stops in several seconds, the keyboard\u2019s memory has been reset.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
Memory reset, Option Two (F7<\/tt>)<\/h2>\n
This procedure is more aggressive than Option One and will completely reset the memory\nback to factory settings (24 macros, QWERTY layout).<\/p>\n
Hold down the F7 key before turning on the power to your computer.\nStart your computer and after a few seconds, release F7.\nA successful reset is indicated if the keyboard\u2019s lights flash several times after releasing F7.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
The Remapping process (Progrm + F12 )<\/h1>\n
Hold down the Program key and tap F12, then release both keys.\nThe keyboard\u2019s lights will begin flashing rapidly.\nTo copy a key, first tap the \u201csource\u201d key whose action you want to copy somewhere else.\nThe lights will begin flashing slowly.\nNow tap the key where you want the new action to appear.\nThe lights will resume rapid flashing.\nTo swap two keys, you can repeat this sequence for each key without exiting from remapping mode.\nWhen you are done making changes, exit with Program plus F12.\nThe lights should immediately stop flashing.<\/p>\n
Default layout always available when remapping<\/strong><\/p>\nWhen you are in remapping mode, the default key layout is always active.\nTherefore you cannot \u201close\u201d a key action by remapping it.\nAny changes you make by remapping are only implemented when you exit remapping mode.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Creating a macro (Progrm + F11)<\/h1>\n
To create a macro, hold down the Program key and tap F11, then release both keys.\nThe keyboard\u2019s lights will begin flashing rapidly.\nFirst select a \u201ctrigger key\u201d (the key or combination of keys that will initiate playback of the macro).\nThe lights will begin flashing slowly.\nNow type the key or keys that will comprise the body of the macro.\nWhen you have finished, hold the Program key and tap F11.\nThe lights should stop flashing on the first tap.\nIf not, you have added F11 to the end of your macro and you should reprogram your macro.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Turning on and off the key click feature (Progrm + backslash \\<\/tt>)<\/h1>\n
By default, the keyboard includes an audible key click for all keys, including the function\nkeys. To turn off the key click, hold down Progrm and press the Backslash key (\\<\/tt>) located\njust below the hyphen key). If you wish to turn on the key click again, simply repeat the\nprocess.\nNote: Most experienced Kinesis keyboard users find that leaving on the key click function\nmakes it easier to use the function keys.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n
