Parameters

Parameter	Android	Windows	JS Core	Description	Possible values
eol				End-of-line character that triggers sensor event (e.g., Enter key from barcode scanner)	"\r"
defaultEvent				Default event name used in sensor events when no regex group match	"event"
defaultId				Default sensor ID, used when idGroupIndex doesn't match	"12"
target				Determines key event consumption. If target == "displayer", the emulator returns true from handle(), consuming the key event and preventing it from reaching other handlers	"displayer"
timeout				Sets the maximum amount of time the device will wait for a new key press, if the timeout expires the received message will be sent to the target	100
type				Emulator type, determines which emulator class handles events. usually if for example a barcode or NFC reader is used then the type has to be KEYBOARD	"KEYBOARD" or "SENSOR" or "IR"
pattern				Regex pattern for extracting id/event/value from keyboard input	"(.*)"
idGroupIndex				Regex capture group index for extracting the sensor ID from matched input	3
eventGroupIndex				Regex capture group index for extracting the event name from matched input	2
valueGroupIndex				which value group the regex should use. Example regex "(.*)": than the value group I want is 1, because I have one group only	1
ignoreModifiers				When true, modifier-only keypresses (Shift, Ctrl, etc.) are ignored	"false"
