Version 2.65 Jul. 2009 5.6. Using the Keyboard Hook Control Utility The keyboard hook control utility is a DLL driver to process Keylock and MSR data properly. 5.6.1. Functions The keyboard hook control utility contains the following function. Keyboard data monitoring Because MSR and Keylock are devices of the keyboard interface, data of each of the devices is sent to the PC as keyboard data. The keyboard hook control utility separates their data for each of the devices. During the device (MSR or Keylock) operation (from Open to Close), the hook driver is called to separate the keyboard data automatically. In other times, when keyboard data separation is required, by loading the keyboard hook control always, it is possible to have the hook driver perform keyboard data separation. This is because at the communication settings of MSR/Keylock, Keyboard Hook Control has been set to be always loaded. When the keyboard hook control is always loaded, then data of the keyboard, MSR, and Keylock devices are always separated. This prevents incorrect operation or data from being displayed in the editor or input application if card or Keylock information is loaded during operations of the editor or an application allowing input. If the Keylock device is used, after startup, until the key position is changed, the current key position cannot be determined correctly. When the keyboard hook control utility runs, a dialog box appears and prompts for change of the position. Following the instructions and modifying the position adjust the key position correctly. 5.6.2. Activation During setup, when the MSR or Keylock is chosen and if the device is set to always load at the communication settings, then the keyboard hook control utility is placed in the Windows Startup group or the keyboard hook driver will automatically load each time Windows is started. Also during setup, a choice can be made of whether or not to display a dialog box that asks the user whether to confirm the Keylock position or not. If the choice is made to confirm the position and to display the dialog box, each 132 User's Manual Installer, SetupPOS, TMUSB
