Using a Mouse with the EssencePRO and Programming the Next Mouse Right Click Tool.
In the Essence PASS software,, there is a new feature that lets you use the RIGHT CLICK on a mouse to speed up programming. When you let your mouse pointer hover over a key, right-clicking your mouse brings up a small, context-sensitive menu.
Move your cursor to highlight the function you want and then click your mouse.
Setup
This behaves just like the SET-UP key on other PRC devices. It is context sensitive so the menus that open depend on where your key is.
(a) If you use setup on a Core key, you open up the ASSIGN CORE KEY menu.
(b) If you use setup while selecting a sequence, you open in the storing a sequence page.
(c) If you use setup with an Activity label key, you open the MODIFY ACTIVITY menu.
(d) If you use setup with an Activity key within an Activity, you open the Modify Item Within Activity page.
(e) If you use setup on a Page key, you open the MODIFY PAGE menu for that page.
Cut - Acts like Clear Key Contents in standard Toolbox menus. If you accidentally cut, you can use Paste to put back the deleted item, so long as you do it immediately.
Copy - Takes the contents of the cell and allows you to paste it elsewhere.
Paste - Takes the current copied item and pastes it into another location. Some items will not copy/paste across modalities e.g. you can’t copy a Core key and paste it into a Page.
Next-Mouse-Right-Click in EssencePRO
In the device itself, there is a new insertable tool called NEXT-MOUSE-RIGHT-CLICK. If you want to be able to use the PASS right-click programming on your device, you must store this tool as one of the User-definable keys. When you use this key, the next mouse click on the device display will be interpreted as a right click, not a standard left click.
1. Assign NEXT-MOUSE-RIGHT-CLICK to a User-definable key at the top of your device.
2. Once the tool is assigned, select the key you assigned it to.
3. Now select a key on your overlay. The mini context-sensitive menu for that key will popup for your use.
Note: If you have a USB mouse, you can plug it into one of the USB ports on the right side of your device and use it just like a regular mouse. Then you can program the EssencePRO software with left and right clicks.
