Key Mapping is used to simulate the host computer key functions from an OnBase workstation so that the keyboard sends the correct sequence of characters to the host system. You also have the option of configuring certain keys to act as function keys.
Each key can be configured for a Normal press, as well as when it's used in conjunction with the Shift, Control, and Alt keys. Click on the key that will be used to for a specific function.
Enter the string or code for the information that should be sent to the host system when the key is pressed. Alternatively, enter the hex code for the key itself. For a table of the hex codes, see the ASCII Table below.
If configuring screen scraping, select the appropriate \S key based on the function you want to perform. Place this value in the Normal area of the screen.
Click OK. Click Save. Browse to the location where the key mapping .key file will be saved. (Usually a UNC path). Click Save.
When keys are mapped, it is important that the correct hex code for the mapped keys is entered. Each key is associated with a specific hex code. The followingASCII Cross Reference Table should be used as a guide when you enter these codes during key mapping.
