Re: how to use PS2 keyboard?

F5 is the command for placing the TT4 into the Configuration Mode. By a strange coincidence, the words "Configuration Mode" should appear on your LCD when you push that button. The key won't bring up a menu, just a prompt.
?The most common problem for LCD interfaces ( Aside from having to hand-wire some of the devices) is that you pretty much have to have a "real" PS/2 keyboard to make use of the keyboard functions. A USB-to-PS/2 adapter won't generally work.??
Assuming that you can get the command line after hitting F5, you can enter many ( But not all) of the normal configuration definitions, like MYCALL, ALIAS1, etc. and change them. Entering the command MYCALL will for instance, result in MYCALL NOCALL (or whatever you have entered) Typing MYCALL XXXXX will change the parameter and it will display the new setting.?
Do your other Function Keys do anything when you hit them?? (Besides click...)?

Question:I didn't find any documentation, could have missed it.
searched the forums here for found something on F5!?
but when I press F5 nothing happens, I see text so.. what is supposed to happen?
Tested on TT4 and MTT4 and same results one item of note the text rolls off 20 character display on MTT4B due to a longer product name.
