However, between the main keyboard and the auxiliary keyboard, the keyboard codes of many keys are overlapped, and still need to be switched by a switching key (Num Lock), when the user needs to use the auxiliary keyboard to input numbers, the auxiliary keyboard must be forcibly converted into a digital code sending mode to input numbers, or the state indicating lamp of the digital code sending mode is recorded, and the user can judge whether to convert the digital code sending mode according to the state indicating lamp, and the original mode is converted by the user after the user inputs the numbers.
This operation is not only troublesome, but also affects the status indicator lights of the host computer and the main keyboard, and when the user must simultaneously issue text and numeric commands to the main keyboard and the auxiliary keyboard, the problem of keyboard code overlap is often solved.
Also, as shown in the 'small keyboard command input method' of patent No. 220492, it mainly uses a buffer memory to store the key pulse data of the pressed key, and compares them, and changes the key state according to the time length, and outputs the correct key code. The problem of input compatibility of the main keyboard and the auxiliary keyboard under different operating systems is solved, and the problem of overlapping of keyboard codes of keys of the main keyboard and the auxiliary keyboard is reduced by using a small keyboard for input.
However, in the above patent, the method of changing the key state by using the pressing time is required to have a delay waiting time during the actual input operation, which is not suitable for a large number of continuous switching inputs, and is relatively time-consuming and not suitable for the simple and fast operation.
