Pc-Check Windows Keyboard Keyboard Map Test Failure Information

Group Number 140X

Device Keyboard

This group covers system information gathering and testing of keyboards.

The Keyboard Zone and Map Tests offer different processes for testing the Keyboards connected to your system. It is not necessary to run both tests for full coverage. Therefore it is recommended to only run the test configured in the way you find most appropriate for your process.

To create a Zone test configuration it is recommended to create a copy of the 104 key configuration and remove any unwanted keys from the file using a text file editor.

Please contact Eurosoft if additional keyboard layouts are required for the Map test.
