It has been a very long time since I looked at the Gennovation USB/HID documentation and I do not own the P3SVGA (P3 only). I do not know how the P3VGA macros are programmed but your description is close to the way I expect such a system to work.
I would recommend downloading software and documentation for both sets of hardware and fully understanding the operation before committing to either set of hardware - particularly given the cost. 73, ... Joe, W4TV On 12/25/2015 2:36 PM, David Cole wrote:
Hi Joe, As always you seem to have penetrated to the heart of my question... THANK YOU! As I have neither seen nor owned one of these keypads yet, I assume one must program each key to emulate a key on a keyboard, separately first. So to check my understanding here is a brief overview: I program the Genovation, using a PC to have a few buttons emulate a few ASCII keys, and unplug it, and set it aside. I then use a normal ASCII keyboard, jacked into the USB port of the P3 to program a few macros, using teh same keys as triggers I programmed into the Genovation. I then remove the ASCII keyboard, and replace it with the Genovation keypad, now if I press one of the pre-programmed keys, (and that key matches a key I have pre-programmed into the P3), the macro associated with that key will trigger, thus controlling the K3, or P3. Is that even close to correct? If so I order a Genovation today!
