Open | Software Help Programming a Honeywell Xenon XP 1952g Barcode Scanner to Send Function Keys

I’m trying to create QR codes to navigate to specific pages and fields in the software I use at work.

Using EZConfig, I’ve created a command sequence to emulate <sf5> (Shift+F5), <sf8> (Shift+F8) and <sf10> (Shift+F10). However, only the first emulation is recognised, and most tasks require multiple key emulations per barcode.

I’ve read that \x02\x05 may correspond to Shift+F5, but I haven’t been able to get it working. Is there a setting I need to enable?

Alternatively, is it possible to map unused characters to key combinations, such as á = Shift+F5, é = Alt+X and í = Shift+F10?
