To put a pause in, click on the DISPLAY HIDE ACTION LIST plus sign at the bottom right plus sign. If you don't put one, KBM sometimes does not work. OK, you now have a button on the Expert Mouse programed, but it is doing nothing. Click on the words and change them to IS RELEASED. Now, YOU ARE NOT DONE! Just to the right, is a double arrow and next to it are the words that say IS PRESSED. The word NONE is replaced with USB/PS2 WHEEL MOUSE BUTTON 5. While it is blue, press the button that is the top right button of the track ball, or any button you want to become a double click on the Kensington Expert Mouse, (KEM). Notice the blue box that shows up and says NONE. You will be using this option for all the track ball functions to work. The second from the bottom option is DEVICE TRIGGER. If you look closely you will see a green plus sign with the command NEW TRIGGER. Create a shortcut with KBM by clicking the center plus sign for ADD MACRO. First click on the bottom left plus sign to add a Group. I am not a TEC writer, so I will do my best. I will offer an example to make the button at the top right of the track ball a double click. Keyboard Maestro also replaces my Quickeys 4.0, but that is another story.

If you follow both my rules above, your expert mouse pro will work. IN ADDITION, when you want to type text of some kind, do not tell Keyboard Maestro to paste in the text, have it TYPE it in.
The bug with Keyboard Maestro is you need to put a pause in between each command. They are Second, the Kensington does fully work, all buttons, so you will get the Expert Mouse pro working just fine. You need to purchase it directly from the developer. Those 6 program buttons are awesome!įirst a note about Keyboard Maestro.

I have used all the MAC OS up to the current Mojave and it works great.
My solution was to use Keyboard Maestro purchased from their web site.

You do NOT need the Kensington software in order to make it work either.

I haven't figured out how to get the scroll wheel to work, but that can most likely work as well. Including all 6 DIRECT LAUNCH buttons, and the 4 mouse buttons around the track ball. The Kensington Expert Mouse PRO and the Mac do work together. I am not sure Peter knows just how powerfull KM is, but it has saved my bacon many times. Kensington stopped making software for it as well as stopped making the trackball iteslf. It was my Kensington Expert Mouse Pro, with 10 pushbuttons. OK, here is a paper I wrote years ago on how to get KM to work controling a track ball. In Catilana it has a differen naming schedule, so the buttons need to be redone. In Mojave and every other verson of MAC software going back 10 years, the switches on my track ball were all fine and happy. On my system, (dig at Apple) even though I checked it, when I opened this window for the second time, it is UNCHECKED!!! However my track ball is working, so I guess a software bug in Catilana.Ĭlose the preference pannel. On my system, an iMac Pro with Catailana 10.15.2, I checked the box to enable the switch control. (horns are heard, chearing in backgournd, some people crying with joy, others just shaking their heads) These can be mouse, keyboard, gamepad buttons, or dedicated devices. The very first two sentences say, "Switch Control Allows the computer to be controlled using one or more switches. If you are not already in the general screen, click on GENERAL on the righ side. This icon happens to be the third icon up from the bottom. In the Accessibilty window, on the left you need to scroll down to the sub application called Switch Control. On my computer it is the third line down of icons and third icon to the right. Now click on the Accessibilty window on the left. That said, start up your Catilana based MAC and open the System Preference paine. This write up will give you instructions on how to set up Catilana to accept unique push buttons from your gaming or control device, using my favorit macro software Keyboard Maestro. Catilana permissions need to be set up to allow extra key strokes from other devices. Turns out, Catilana is the problem why the extra buttons do not work. Working on getting my Kensington Expert Mouse PRO 10 button track ball to work with Catilana has been fun.
Instructions for using Keyboard Maestro with a gaming stick or a 2/4/10 button trackball with Catilana.
