Zebra DS8178 Product Reference Guide

4 - 20 DS8178 Digital Scanner Product Reference Guide
HID Keyboard FN1 Substitution
When enabled, this parameter allows replacement of any FN1 character in an EAN128 bar code with a Key
Category and value chosen by the user. See FN1 Substitution Values on page 5-40 to set the Key Category and
Key Value.
HID Function Key Mapping
ASCII values under 32 are normally sent as control-key sequences. When this parameter is enabled, the keys in
bold are sent in place of the standard key mapping (see Table I-1 on page I-1).
Table entries that do not have a bold entry remain the same whether or not this parameter is enabled.
