Setting function keys

I am using the dEX configurator with dataTaker DT80M firmware version 9.08.

When i set a key to run a job from the manual command windows in "monitor the logger" with the two commands profile function F1_label=test and profile function F1_command=runjob"test" the function key n.1 works but if i configure the n.1 key through the configuration logger page with the graphical setting keypad function and save it it doesn't work. What I am doing wrong?

Thanks

Hi Antoniodelta,

The Problem here is the Quotation Marks when you add the command in "Configure the Logger" using Keypad Functions page,add it as Runjob'Test' with Single Quotes

Because When you use "Configure the Logger" it adds Double quotes to all the profile settings

like this PROFILE FUNCTION F1_COMMAND="Runjob"Test""

when you send this to the logger it complains but UI is not reporting it back

Initializing...Done.
