such as RFID readers are triggered. You can configure the trigger ID for each trigger
button for both single- and double-click, and the double-click time.

5.21.1 Trigger Mappings
A trigger mapping is an association between a particular key on the keyboard and a
driver or application, the module(s)– sometimes referred to as “trigger
consumer(s)”–of the trigger source. Along with keyboard keys, trigger sources can
also be grip triggers, external hardware triggers or software-based. When the
specified key is pressed, the trigger consumer (for example, a decoded scanner) is
sent a message.
Important: It is not possible to have two or more identical mappings—for
example [F1] cannot be mapped to the Non-Decoded Scanner
twice—even if the trigger type is different.
A keyboard key that is used as a trigger source will no longer gen-
erate key data or perform its normal function. For example, if the
space button is used as a trigger source, it will not be able to send
space characters to applications.
