Hello

thank you for entering in my post

I'm not able to write a line, with my iTNC530 for PC, with just words, I've seen on a demo program , in a line with just words it starts with an asterisk then a hyphen, words, and it ends up with a colon

But I don't know, with a virtual keybord, how to insert an asterisk following by an hyphen

Even if I want to add at the end of line some words I don't know how to do, basically I should insert a semicolon before my word

any suggestion according this matter will be very appreciative

thank you in advace for your help

Hello arenamember,

if you've an english / us keyboard layout use your hardware keyboard.
For semicolon on german keyboards use the Ö - key

In the installation zip archive you'll find a matching keyboard layout -> looking for pgmplatz_tast_en.pdf

If you'd like to add a semicolon at the end of line, jump with the cursor to the end of the line and then press the semikolon key on your (hardware)-keyboard.

Dear CNCFanatiker thank you again
However it doesn't work even if I jump at the end of the line and I press semicolon on the keybord of my laptop it doesn't work

I know that in the installetion zip archive I can find a keyboard layout but I don't know how to prime it
the only buttons that work are: ent, numbers from 0 to 9, esc, cursors (left, right, up, down) but all the others even if I follow that matching keyboard layout they dont work, it looks my laptop keybord is not primed at all, only the buttons which don't need that matching keyboard layout work, that is only those buttons which already do the same funcution on my laptop work without to be renamed like: ent, esc, ....ect ect


thank you very much indeed in advance for your help

No problem,

but indeed curiously.
Perhaps your laptop keyboard has a system specific dual key assignment? - ... but I've an idea to test for -> use the Windows on-screen keyboard.

it doesn't work even with the virtual Windows on-screen keyboard :-(

a pity. :wacko:

Can you take a photo of the laptop keyboard?

Othewise take a look at the programming station / keyboard settings. Try to switch the default setting and restart the software.
