  2. Select the keyboard map that you want to customize.

  3. Click the Customize button.

  4. Make the desired modifications in the Customize Keyboard Editor dialog box.

  5. Click the OK button.

  6. Enter a name for the new custom keyboard file (.zkb), and then click Save.

  7. Click OK to apply the new keyboard map to the PASSPORT session.

Note: Certain keys or key combinations cannot be customized. These keys are either reserved by Windows or used as shortcut keys.
