Hello,
Still trying, very hard, really, to understand QK’s and their nuances.
Have a 436, and the following refers to Sentinel settings.
Thanks everyone for trying to help me out with this.
Everyone has been so nice with their time and help.
As usual, I’m missing something.
Embarrassed to ask, but I guess it’s the best way of learning.
Have read every piece of documentation I could find, many times, but still confused.
I’ll blame it on my age now.
Let me give a concrete example:
Under “Favorites Lists” in the left hand pane, I have, e.g., “Sudbury Only”, and
a second one I call “RR” (railroad)
If I click on “Sudbury Only”, the top level (System) I see that I have QK 1 assigned to it.
Fine, that’s what I want
And, if I click on “RR”, the top level (System) I see that I have QK 2 assigned to it, which
is also what I want.
If I now go to the “Edit Profile” icon, I see that I have both Monitor and Download set to ON, as was suggested in a previous Post.
a. But, if I look at “Favorite Lists” (left hand pane), I see in the chart that comes up that both QK’s are set to None. Why ?
b. And, under the Scan Selection tab in “Edit Profile”, the Quick Keys,
they both also show “None”. Why ? Should they ?
*So, I guess, I am asking how to set up all of my QK’s, and have them show the
assigned number in All of the various places where I think they should (also) show ?
c. When I turn the scanner On, I don’t want any QK’s to be active as Defaults.
To have this, do I just Un-Check ALL of the boxes in the
Profile Editor/Quick Key Status in Sentinel ?
Then, pressing a QK number in the scanner will bring up that System, and Everything in it.
Right ? Should Monitor and Download still remain as ON ?
Thanks,
Bob
