Joe's KeyMaker 7 LCD User's Guide

KeyMaker 7 USB LCD (KM7LCD) functions are all selected by moving the Joystick tip Left, Right, Up and Down.

The main KM7LCD display

Joystick control

DOWN scrolls through all the options available in the current menu level

Right selects the currently displayed option and is also used to confirm you wish to perform the currently displayed option.

LEFT and UP back out of the current menu level

The Main Menu


Moving the Joystick tip Down - engages the LCD Screen Menu and Joystick control

 

Pressing Down, again and again, scrolls through all the Main Menu Options

The US displayed on the bottom right is to remind you which ThinkPad Keyboard Language is currently set, US stands for US English QWERTY, this is important when displaying recovered SVP as the letters can change depending on the Keyboard.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Diagnostics is the last option on the Main Menu, if you press Down once more, the Main Menu is repeated again from the first option

 

 

 

As you scroll through the Main Menu Options, if you wish to perform the currently displayed selection, you move the joystick tip to the Right

For example, you have scrolled Down through the main menu to LSI

 

You wish to perform an LSI operation - you move the joystick tip to the Right

 

If you now move the joystick tip Down once more, you will scroll through the next of the 2 options available in the LSI menu

 

With SVP Clear displayed if you move the Joystick tip to the Right you select that operation

 

 

If you confirm that you do indeed wish to Clear SVP by moving the Joystick tip to the Right the Clear SVP operation starts

 

 

Had you moved the Joystick tip in any direction other than to the Right to confirm it, the operation is aborted

 

 

When the SVP has been cleared you see this, which is to remind you to go into BIOS Setup, select defaults F9 and save F10

 

 

All of the LCD - Joystick operations also appear on your PC or Laptop screen if you are running your terminal Software

Notice "Joystick active" is displayed on the PC screen followed by the operations performed using the LCD - Joystick

Also note the more complete message following the operation

 

You can switch back and forth at any time between the PC keyboard running your Terminal Software or using the LCD- joystick

If the LCD- Joystick was last operated and you wish to use the PC keyboard just press 0 [zero] and you have control, photo below, 0 was pressed screen at Main Menu

 

If the last command was type on the PC keyboard and you wish to switch over to the LCD - Joystick, simply move the Joystick tip either Left or Up and you are back at the Main display on the LCD with teh Joystick in control

 

 

Trying to explain using the LCD - Joystick in fact makes it appear to be much more difficult than it is to use it in practice.

Down scrolls through all available options at that Menu level.

Right selects/confirms that menu level or operation.

Left gets you out of almost anything.
