KEY FUNCTIONS:
Your keyboard has several functions built in that allow the user to change the
characteristics of how the keyboard operates.
STICKY KEYS and LATCHING:
This function allows the Shift, Ctrl or Alt keys to stay selected without the need to hold
the key down. Sticky Keys function is selected by pressing the SHIFT key
TEN
times.
This will activate Sticky Keys in Windows. Your keyboard also allows for key latching by
pressing the
SHIFT
key once and then selecting the desired key. Once this operation is
complete latching is deactivated. Repeat the process for more latching.
DELAY:
Delay can be added to each key to allow the user to only send the key they want,
where other keys may accidentally be pressed. The length of delay can be adjusted to
suit the user.
1.0 sec delay: Fun Lock, Alt + 1
1.5 sec delay: Fun Lock, Alt + 2
2.0 sec delay: Fun Lock, Alt + 3
2.5 sec delay: Fun Lock, Alt + 4
3.0 sec delay: Fun Lock, Alt + 5
Turn off delay: Fun Lock, Alt + 0 (Zero)
ONE-SHOT:
This function only allows a key to send a character once, i.e. no character repeat if a
key is held down. To turn on One-Shot press Fun Lock + Alt + O. To turn off press Fun
Lock + Alt + N.
REPEAT RATE:
This function allows you to adjust the speed at which a character repeats when you
hold down the key. To turn on Repeat Rate press Fun Lock + Alt + S (Slow), or M
(Medium) or F (Fast). To turn off press Fun Lock + Alt + N.
In this mode the Windows key is deactivated and can be reactivated by selecting Fun
Lock + Alt + N.
1.8 FUNCTION KEYS AND THE NUMBER PAD:
This model of the MALTRON Single Handed keyboard has the Function keys mounted
along the top of the keyboard where they are easily visible. They operate in exactly the
same way as the usual arrangement.
