How to set up a KEYMAP.xxx file for an NCR 32-key Keyboard Print
Documentation - QConnect
 The KEYMAP.xxx file resides in the ADX_UDT1 directory on all controllers. The KEYMAP.000 file is part of the ASM (Applied Software Maintenance) install diskette for QConnect. The ASM QConnect install diskette must be installed on every controller that is to load and support QConnect terminals.

The KEYMAP.xxx file has an extension, xxx, which represents one of the following:

    * If xxx = 000, this is the default KEYMAP file to be used if a KEYMAP file does not exist for a particular terminal number.
    * If xxx = nnn (where nnn is a terminal number), values from this file will be used for terminal nnn only.

KEYMAP Layout and Syntax

Each line within the KEYMAP file must be one of the following:

          o a blank line
          o a comment line /* this a comment */
          o a key mapping line a = 73

Note:   Several parameters formerly contained in the KEYMAP file have been moved to the CDIFILE.  The description here omits all parms that now reside in the CDI file.

/* Key Map File Syntax:                                               */
/* [key_name] = [key POS function code] /* comment . . . . . . */     */
/*                                                                    */
/* "key_name" can be left blank for no key mapping or it can be       */
/* a single key letter, number, or special function code associated   */
/* with the character generated by the keyboard.                      */
/*                                                                    */
/* "key POS function code" can either be the POS function code value  */
/*                                                                    */
/* such as: 73, 61, 95, 115, 222                                      */
/*                                                                    */
/* or it can be one of the "right side" special key values such as:   */
/*    NOKEY, NUM_00 ,NUM_000                                          */
/*                                                                    */
/* Comments begin with "/*" and end with "*/", they must began and    */
/* end on the same line.                                              */
