Scancode Remapping
A scancode is a number that is associated with a physical key on a keyboard. Every key has a unique scan-
code that is mapped to a virtual key, a function, or a macro. Scancode Remapping allows you to change the
functionality of any key on the keyboard. A key can be remapped to send a virtual key (e.g. VK_F represents
the ‘F’ key; VK_RETURN represents the [ENTER] key, etc.), perform a function (e.g. turn the scanner on,
change volume/contrast, etc.) or run a macro.
There are four different tables of scancode mappings: the Normal table, the Orange table, the Blue table and
the Shift table. The Normal table defines unmodified key presses; the Blue table defines key presses that occur
when the [FN/BLUE] modifier is on; the Orange table defines key presses that occur when the [FN/ORANGE]
modifier is on; the Shift table defines key presses that occur when the [SHIFT] modifier is on. The default
mappings of these scancodes can be overwritten for each of these four tables using Scancode Remapping.
The first column in the Scancode Remapping tab displays the scancodes in hexadecimal. If the scancode is
remapped to a virtual key, that virtual key is displayed in the column labelled V-Key. In the column labelled
Function, virtual keys that are ‘Shifted’ or ‘Unshifted’ are displayed.
NOTE To add a shifted state – [SHIFT] and/or [CTRL], tap on the checkbox next to ‘SHIFT
Pressed’ and/or ‘CTRL Pressed’.
