No one?

It probably can, through a workaround. All keyboards have a fixed set of standard keys, any extra have to be handled through the keyboard software as macros. On my MS Sidewinder X4 it has 3 selectable banks of 6 extra buttons for a total of 18 extras that are also program focused. On bank 2 & 3 of my setup are all macros that I use through FSUIPC for gauge/lua programming debugging.

 

Once unused FSX key macros were made on the keyboard, if I remember correctly I had to hand edit the FSUIPC4.ini as the FSUIPC trapping of the keyboard was at a lower level than the macro provided by the keyboard. (The workaround)  

 

Advise to go to the manufacturer's site and get a manual or check the specs on how the extra buttons work.
