if you open the junXion preferences window you wil see that you can set the maximum amount of sensors/device in the Human Interface Inputs pane. When you want to use a computer keyboard, the best thing to do is to set this to 100 or 200.
Close the Preferences and in the Human Interface Evnts browser select your Dell keyboard. Below of the inputs named "Key #0xfffff" you will find a lot more other keys and these keys are actually switches.
Key #0x4 = a, Key #0x5 = b, etc.
Now for every switch you can make a Patch, the Action is using the data of the switch (0 or 127.0) and a fixed note number, the one you want corresponding to the key.
Press the key: the note on event is sent, release the key: the note off event is sent.
This is the easiest solution to your problem.
The way you have done it can also work but needs more sophisticated Patches.
Hope this helps,

I actually tried his advice initially but I thought it wasn't working. That's because although there exists Key #0x4 when you rebuild the HID list with 200 or 500 sensors, it is much further down the list. At the top of the list there is still the Dell USB: Key #0xffffff with data values like 44.33. So I should have scrolled down the entire 200 sensors or whatever.
