What Does @ Mean

Post by hhyatt »

Could someone explain to me what @ means in KeyMaster Spreadsheet.

I read on the sheet that it had something to do with moves, but how does it work -- and example would help.

It means the key can't be mapped by the main body of a device upgrade based on the current device type. If you define the key, KM will create a KeyMove for that definition.

For most use, you don't need to worry about the difference between a key defined by the main body of the upgrade and one defined by a KeyMove. But if you're short of KeyMove memory then it makes a difference. Or if you later want to undefine that key by deleting or replacing the upgrade, IR won't remember the association between the upgrade and the KeyMove and will keep the KeyMove when you delete or replace the upgrade (unless you also delete or replace the KeyMove).
