The emulator offers key input capability similar to that of the actual DT-X7 device. For instance, a
key on the emulated keyboard of DT-X7 on the screen (see Figure 9.9) can be clicked with the PC
mouse as well as key input made directly on the PC’s keyboard.

clicking Trigger key on the emulated keyboard (see Figure 9.9). Note however that the Trigger key
must be continuously pressed for a second or more otherwise an incorrect key input may result.
