PST-7000 series user’s manual – USING THE PST SYSTEM
• RWM.EXE – This is a straight through programming utility used under DOS
environment.
• KBM.EXE – This is a detail programming utility applicable under DOS,
WINDOWS 3.1, WINDOWS95 and so on.
• HOT KEY PROGRAMMING – This is the most convenient (maybe less
efficiently) programming method applicable under any environment. This is also
the method most possibly used by the end user for instant content update. This will
be further discussed in next section.
INSTANT CONTENT UPDATE
If you want to update the key definition of any key in the PST keyboard, this
instant content update feature serves the purpose best. However, this method
programs only the normal displayable characters for the key definitions. The instant
content update utilizes the Hot Key programming ability of the programmable
keyboard that can be arranged in four steps:
The preparation requires a standard PC or PS/2 keyboard connected to the
external keyboard connector of the PST7000 series in the front door area locked by
the mechanical key. To enter the Hot Key programming mode, the left “Alt” key and
the “PRT SC” (“Print Screen”) key on the PC or PS-2 keyboard must be pressed at the
same time and after two beeps from the system, the key on the programmable
keyboard to be updated must be pressed. The user should then use either the PC or
PS/2 keyboard or the connected CCD scanner to input the content to be programmed
for that key. To exit the Hot Key programming mode, the user has to press both the
left “Alt” key and the “PRT SC” (Print Screen) again. The system gives one beep here
to notify a successful input, three beeps for input failure.
