Yes, TkEMC should use function keys to do :

Estop/machine-on

Man - Auto - MDI

Coolant On/Off

Spindle On/Off

Etc. just like xemc. If it is not working, you may have
the wrong keyboard definition in the XF86Startup file,
thereby causing X to give the wrong key codes to applications.
There is a test program that writes out the key codes that are
generated by each key (program is part of X). You can compare
the values to what TkEmc is expecting by looking at the source
code.

Anyway, it works fine for me.
