Programmability of cherry boards
« on: Fri, 21 May 2010, 14:42:22 »
I suppose this should include all boards but I am mainly interested in cherry boards. I want to get as much info together as possible to add it to the wiki. information like what methods can be used to program them, what models are programmable and what kind of limits a model has.

So to start I found this link for the g80-2100:http://fsinfo.noone.org/~abe/cherry-g80-2100.html

Some answers in cherry's faq section:http://www.cherrycorp.com/english/keyboards/FAQs/index.htm#_How_do_I_4

This also, it looks like it's involved with card readers:http://www.docstoc.com/docs/12894269/CHERRY-KEYBOARD-PROGRAMMING-SHEET

The G80-8113HRBUS-2 that I recently received has 60 programmable keys 15 of those are blank or unused (f13 and up). each key can be programmed into 3 states, unmodified, shift+ and control+. each key has the option of being hardware programmed or software programmed. hardware programmed keys can only be set for the unmodified key state and no modifier macros can be bound to that key allowing only one macro per key. each key will support three software macros (unmodified, shift+ and control+)and delayed keystrokes. delayed keystrokes cannot be set with hardware macros. according to cherry hardware macros record 16 keystrokes and software can record 2000.

This pdf had some of the info I posted.

If anyone has any other info, board specific or not I would like to hear it.
