Can the Console Manager keyboard map be customized?

[Robert Stark]

An OPS/MVS Vitality student asked if the Automation Point Console Manager keyboard map can be customized.

Perusing the documentation, I don't see any mention of such a capability.

Some keys used at the console do not seem to have a binding,

Hi Bob,

Please let us know what keys you are missing in the Automation Point Console Manager... 

Did you also check the 3270 mode of the Console Manager?
See here:
 

If you enter this mode, you get another display of the console with information on some keyboard settings:

It looks like NEWLINE is the only one actually missing.
The original question remains unanswered, though: Is there a way to assign Enter to another key? The age-old controversy, right-ctrl vs ENTER, alas. Right-Ctrl might not make it through a web browser...

Hi Bob,

For the keyboard mapping there is indeed also this key_101.key file and a way to customize it..
See indeed the chapter Kim pointed you to.. 
In the AP configuration Manager is even an opton to customize it. See this chapter: Running the Keyboard Configuration Program.

It gives you a help to customize it.. 
You can add, modify and remove functions and change the keys in areas of AP you like...

ps. i saw the tner key was at scancode 28

The original value is

KEY=NEWLINE,SCAN=28,map=(terminal)
KEY=NEWLINE,SCAN=28(ctrl),map=(automate)
KEY=ENTER,SCAN=28,map=(automate)

and i changed it to the below and it changed the enter key to an actual enter..

KEY=ENTER,SCAN=28,map=(terminal)
KEY=ENTER,SCAN=28(ctrl),map=(automate)
KEY=ENTER,SCAN=28,map=(automate)

Best regards
