Keyboard Macro Keys
Macro keys are not labelled on the keypad. However, you can map up to 12 macro functions
using the keyboard remapping function described in “Scancode Remapping” on page 129. A
macro has 20 programmable characters (or “positions”). The macro keys can be pro-
grammed to replace frequently used keystrokes, along with the function of executable keys
including [ENTER] and [BKSP], function keys, and arrow keys.
