[PCB_FORUM] Re: X-Keys 20 key, any good?

Thanks for the response David.  I was mainly wondering if it is worth
getting (easy to set up, reliable etc.).

 

One of the scripts I use is "t.scr" which turns on only top pads, etch
assemblies etc.  I have "replay t" aliased to "t", so when I type "t", Enter
it runs the "t" script.  So, can the X-Key keyboard be set up to perform
both "t" and the Enter?  That would be great to hit one key and have the
script run!  Hmmm, maybe I should think about the 58 key instead of the 20
key.

 

Sure, I'm always open to ideas for scripts.  I have lots of them to set up
the initial database depending on a standard format (i.e. pci, lpc, atx,
mini itx etc.) and layer count (4, 6, 8, 10).  I also have several to change
views, grids etc.  I just had to bang on all of the set up scripts for them
to manual place format symbols since we went to 15.5.

Using the ~56 key one. Got some scripts if you want ideas on setting it up.
Also use another for C programming and spice - fewer syntax errors that way.

Hey again,

 

So here's another one.  Anybody use the Pi Engineering X-Keys 20 key
programmable supplemental keyboard?  Is it easy to program, works well?

Thanks for any input.
