  You need to create a Data_Event String_Event handler for port 1 of your TP in code to capture data from the keyboard. You might want to go to System Page Templates in TPD-4 and copy the keyboard and paste it into you regular pages and give it a specific name to distiguish inputs from this keyboard for this device from other keyboards for other device. You can avoid this if page tracking and knowing what purpose invoked the keyboard.

  So what does all the trick is the line (CREATE_BUFFER tp,tp_buffer)?

  do something like this:

  DATA_EVENT   [TP]  //10001:1:0             
  
       {
       ONLINE:
  	  {
  	  //
  	  }
       OFFLINE:
  	  {
  	  //
  	  }
       ONERROR:
  	  {
  	  //
  	  }
       STRING:
  	  {//SELECT ACTIVE would be nicer
  	  if (find_string(tp_buffer,'My_1st_Named_KEYB-',1))
  	       {
  	       //do something for keyboard 1
  	       }
  	  else if (find_string(tp_buffer,'My_2nd_Named_KEYB-',1))  
  	       {
  	       //do something for keyboard 2
  	       }
  	  else if (find_string(tp_buffer,'KEYB-',1))
  	       {
  	       //do something for system keyboard
  	       //this would have to be last cuz it's true with all keyboard returns
  	       }
  	  }
       }
