CHAPTER 2
USING SKYLITE
Clicking on the six special editing keys (Ins, Home, Pg Up, Delete, End and Pg Dn) will
cause the Emulation Key section to display the relevant binding.
Example
To remap the Find emulation key from its default setting of INS key:
1. Click on the Ins key. The Emulation key changes to the Find option.
2. Click on the keys you wish to remap or bind it to. For example, click on the Ctrl
key and the F12 key causing Ctrl+F12 to be highlighted.
3. Click on the Find option in the emulation list and the radio button for Emulation
key in the Map PC Key To section.
To remap or bind this, you MUST click on the Bind Button.
To test this mapping, click on the Find option and then on Show Binding. It should
display Ctrl+F12 on the keyboard diagram.
Note: If you remap an emulation key to a previously defined emulation key, e.g., bind
Find to the Del key, the Del key binding (i.e., Select) will be lost.
Strings
This option associates a string to a PC key. This allows you to set a key so that every time
that key is pressed, a string will be sent to the host. For example, you can set a key so that
you can log off from a host at the touch of a button by associating a command such as
the word OFF with a key such as Esc. You cannot assign a string to a key that has been
assigned as an emulation key. To do this you must first move the emulation binding.
To associate a string to a PC key:
1. Click on the PC Key in the Keyboard Mapping dialog that you want to associate
to the string.
2. Under the Map PC Key To section, select String.
3. Enter the required text in the field to the right of String. If a carriage return is
required as well, then enter a Control symbol (^) followed by a capital M.
To set the string to the PC key:
Click on the Bind button.
Clicking on the function keys (F1 through to F12) causes a character string to appear in
the Map PC Key To section next to the String radio button.
To find out if a PC key has a string associated with it:
In the Keyboard Mapping dialog, click on the PC key.
If a key has a string associated with it, the String field in the Map PC Key To section will
display the relevant string.
Macros
Macros are used to automate tasks. If there is a macro that you use frequently, it would be
worth associating a macro with a PC key so that whenever you pressed that key, the
macro would be run.
To map a macro:
1. Click on the Macro radio button and either enter the full path name of the macro
in the field next to it, or select it using the Browse button.
2. Click on the Bind button at the bottom of the dialog; then click on the OK
button.
