| Keypad Help Needed - Num Lock |
| (1/2) > >> |
| Freeplay:
I'm looking at building my Jukebox cab with a keypad like this... This keypad would be great for song selection etc... I can redine keys etc... but the problem is the number lock key. Does anyone know how to engage the number lock key... and then disable it. I can bootup with number lock on... so I guess really I need to disable the key... so people wonn't touch it and disable the number keys This will solve a lot of problems if I can work it out. Any ideas?..... |

quick and dirty way would be to dismantle the unit and place something non-conductive (like paper) between the contacts on the sheets beneath that key. |

Use this http://www.rjlsoftware.com/software/utility/numlock/ and incorporate it in a batch file before you launch your jukebox software. I used this solution with sk jukebox in my mame cab. |
| Pik4chu:
just keep in mind that with the software a user could still press the keypad and disable numlock. It would be good for ensuring that numlock is on when starting your jukebox app though. |
| PetitMorte:
for your jukebox, would you use the other non-numerical keys too? Like the / and the *, etc? If not, remove all the keys you don't want to use, then mount the thing to something thin, like a metal panel, with just the number keys sticking through. |
