5.10.1 Trigger Mappings
A trigger mapping is an association between a particular key on the keyboard and a driver or
application, the “owner(s)” of the trigger source. When the specified key is pressed, the
owner (for example, a decoded scanner) is sent a message.
Double-Click
When a key is pressed and released, then pressed again within the configured time (between
0 to 1000 milliseconds), a double-click occurs. See also “Trigger Type” on page 90.
Show All
By default, the trigger mapping list only shows active mappings. Mappings for drivers or
applications that are not currently active are not normally displayed. By checking this
checkbox, all mappings, both active and inactive, are displayed.
Add
Tapping this button brings up the Add Mapping dialog box, so that you can add new
trigger mappings.
Important: It is not possible to have two or more identical mappings—for example [F1]
cannot be mapped to the Decoded Scanner twice—even if the trigger type
is different.
A keyboard key that is used as a trigger source will no longer generate key
data, or perform its normal function. For example, if the space button is
used as a trigger source, it will not be able to send space characters
to applications.
