Keyboard Macros Setup Menus This dialog box is displayed by selecting Keyboard Macros in the Settings menu. Key Expansion Enabled Factory default: Selected This option specifies whether programmed keys on the keyboard can be expanded (i.e. transmit their programmed contents to the host) when pressed. When selected, a programmed key will send its programmed string instead of its normal character. Key Expansion Character Factory default: ^P (i.e. DLE) The key execute character is a special toggle character that can be inserted into key macro strings to cause subsequent characters to be redirected from the host to the terminal and vice versa. By default all characters in the macro are directed to the host. When a key expansion character is detected for the first time, characters will be redirected to the terminal until the character is detected a second time in the current or another string. The key execute character is specified as the control key character equivalent. For example, the default value ^P represents the keys Ctrl + P, which would generate the ASCII control character DLE when pressed. 8-71
