You can set keys for:
 
* '''Alovolt:''' Sets a key that simulates the pressing of left and right at the same time, which results in an [[Alovolt|alovolt]].
 
* '''Brake alias:''' Sets an extra key to brake with. Pros use this cause some keyboards do not allow pressing the up and down arrows at the same time, so if you want to use arrow keys, you need an extra brake key to accelerate and brake at teh same time.
 
* ''' Escape alias:''' Sets and extra Escape key, if you think Esc is too far away from your other Elma keys.
 
* ''' Replay control keys:''' Lets you set several VCR-like keys to use when viewing replays.

Apart from being the main tool for connetcing to the server, there are some other settings in belmaServerConf:
 
* '''Center map:''' Centers the view of the minimap.
 
* '''Map align:''' You can stop the minimap from switching corners when you turn around by locking it to the left, middle or right.
 
* '''FPS limit:''' You can deliberately lower the FPS (frames per second) of Elma to get slightly different behaviour of the bike.
 
The server configuration program for Elma Online will have even more options.
