Understanding The Interface

In order to program the DV Keyboard Settings, it may be helpful to understand how the application works.

Essentially, when we are programming either the jog, shuttle, or Specialty keys, we are simply having those

devices produce keystrokes found on the keyboard. For example, with the Jog wheel, when we turn the wheel to

the left, we may have it produce an arrow left command. When you are using the jog wheel and spin it to the left,

the faster you spin the wheel the faster the jog wheel “hits” the arrow key.

Three Steps To Programming Most Settings

1. Select the Action of either the Jog Wheel, Shuttle Wheel, or Specialty keys (see Entering Settings below). The

Action is the physical action of the device, such as turning the Shuttle wheel to position Shuttle Right 1.

2. Select what type of input you want - None,

Keyboard or Mouse. Under the Input menu,

use your mouse to select one of these

options.

3. If you have selected Keyboard under the

Input menu, then the Keyboard Input menu

will become active - you can press any key or

key combination.

Under the Shuttle Wheel section, you will also have a Frequency option, allowing your computer to continue to

produce a certain keystroke or mouse input at a regular interval.

Entering Settings

There are three ways to enter Action settings:

1. By clicking on the appropriate area of the the interface (for example, for the Jog

Left function, you would click on the left portion of the Jog Wheel and have the

Action dialog box switch to Jog Left). The area you are affecting will turn red to

show that it is the active area.

2. By using the drop-down menu under Action. Simply click the down arrow and

select the appropriate Action.

3. By pressing a button or turning the jog or shuttle wheel on the keyboard itself. The area you are affecting will

turn red to show that it is the active area.
