-Many input devices nowadays include dedicated function keys for particular (usually hardware-related) functions, such as volume adjustment, brightness adjustment, power off, etc. Batocera supports the scripting of these function keys to certain commands, and includes most common function keys for various platforms. But it is possible that your device in particular doesn't have these coded in yet, or you simply want to change what the function key does. This can be achieved via the configuration of [[#|triggerhappy]].+Many input devices nowadays include dedicated function keys for particular (usually hardware-related) functions, such as volume adjustment, brightness adjustment, power off, etc. Batocera supports the scripting of any key to any command, and includes most common function keys for various platforms.

 Look for the key name in parenthesis and its value when depressed after the "code" number. In this example, the key name would be ''KEY_SYSRQ'' and its value would be ''0''. Look for the key name in parenthesis and its value when depressed after the "code" number.
