You could try using the 'hal_input' component and see what keys your keyboard offers. These can then be connected in hal to the .increse/.decrease pins of gmoccapy.

example:
1. open a terminal and type:
2. find your keyboard in the output
example: 'Bus 003 Device 002: ID 17ef:608c Lenovo Lenovo Calliope USB Keyboard'
3. Add this to the [HAL] section of your ini file using one of the words from the keyboard identification from above to identify the device (for our example we use 'Keyboard')
4. Start your config, enter the settings page and click on the 'Halshow' button in the lower right corner
5. Navigate to pins/input/0/ and check if any function keys have been recognized:
6. In our example there are some function keys we can use (eg 'input.0.key-volumeup', 'input.0.key-volumedown')
7. Connect these pins to the relevant gmoccapy halpins in the POSTGUI_HALFILE (eg to control the linear jog velocity):
possible pins can also be found in pins/gmoccpy.
