It's not that I necessarily want hardware to do the job that software does; I want visual clues as to what is going on. As always, if I had a picture to go with my plan, that would help.... --- End quote --- The caps/numlock light functions from the controllers or a separate LED controller might fit the bill. Depending on how fancy you want to get, a simple light on the CP can indicate what mode you're in. --- Quote from: mvsfan on July 08, 2009, 05:58:42 pm ---say if you can do that with a cfg file thats even better. ive got a small addition to that idea though although i cant help you any further with the software part. if you could wire a toggle switch to an input on your ipac or other keyboard encoder and then get the cfg file to pick up when that switch is on or off, you still get your switch and also you dont have to fuss with replacing relays or wiring them. --- End quote --- Easy enough. Just use the shift/Shazaam/user defined to "shift" your button functions. Tie the shift and another chosen button together so pressing the button will activate both. After that the rest is just a programming exercise. |

Found the perfect thing for my use: http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id=101&cp_id=10103&cs_id=1010305&p_id=1373&seq=1&format=2 The components are all pluggable using RJ45 or USB, so this will be perfect. Hopefully, I'll be able to get that out of the box and mounted to my admin panel. Thanks for all the ideas! |
