STOPZERo TAP

Current Version: A2

 

1                    INTRODUCTION

 

This TAP inhibits the operation of the Zero key except:

 

·         For 2½ seconds after pressing one of the other numeric keys, thus allowing numbers such as 10 or 20 to be entered.

 

·         At any time when Toppy menus, EPG, Archive, Games etc are displayed

 

 thus preventing aspect ratio switching but allowing other uses of that key.

 

2                    USE

 

Download StopZero from here, and unzip the received file, which contains two versions as follows:

 

·         StopZero.tap

 

·         StopZeroNLS.tap

 

These are functionally identical, but the former displays a short message while loading. Copy the version you prefer into “/ProgramFiles” (or a subdirectory thereof) and start it from the native Toppy Archive. When you are satisfied that it does what you want, transfer it to your Auto Start directory. It is probably best to have it last in your load order so it does not affect other TAP’s use of the zero key.

 

To close StopZero down, press “Menu” (to get the main Toppy menu) followed by “Stop” (Live), and then press OK at the “Do you want to” prompt.
