Title: Programming a on screen button for a key pad
Post by: PaulCNCMann on January 10, 2009, 08:10:40 PM

Hello Everyone,

I am just wondering how I could program a button on mach to work on my cordless key pad.

I am using a Z-Zero macro for the mach blue screen.  I would like to change it so that when I press the #7 button with num lock on (HOME)  that I run this macro.

How would I go about doing this if it's at all possible.

Thanks for any help

Open your screenset in Screen4 and make a VB button, then set the hotkey for that button. Save the screen then open Mach again and go to Operator menu then Edit VB Buttons, you will see the button you just created flashing, click on it and enter your VB.
