I play WoW with 5 slots using key/mouse broadcast features e.t.c.
Now i want to add extra slot for my AH/bank account to use window swapping only.
How can i disable everything except window swapping for that slot? I mean all key/mouse broadcasts, turn on/off repeaters e.t.c.

I find a built in solution - "Ignore keyboard/mouse broadcasts sent to this Character" option in character settings.
It's almost works as intended but numeric buttons (1-9) doesn't work.
How can i enable them?

I'd have to say that option works exactly as intended. Simply, when a character is NOT the active window, anything it receives is considered a broadcast (from the active window).

What you intend is something else though which would require a bit more specialised configuration by adjusting the profile to use ATG's to limit which slot it is being sent to from the various mapped keys, and then also setting up specific mapped keys for the NUM1 - 9 keys that only send to your AH slot/ATG/toon.

It's not a big problem for me that my AH slot sent outgoing broadcasts. It's not a perfect solution but it's better than nothing for now.
Right now i need to enable my numeric keys to work (not the num pad keys).
When Broadcast keys active numeric keys send broadcasts but doesn't works in AH window.
When Broadcast keys disabled numeric keys works.
So i need to disable broadcast each time i switch to AH window and enable each time i switch out.
How can i make AH slot behave same as other slots in terms of using numeric keys?

When you disable Key Maps, then the numeric keys are just processed normally, and with no Hotkeys being captured, they fall through to the current window. When Key Maps are enabled, the numeric keys use a specific action that broadcasts keys to one or more windows.

Untick the option on that character to ignore all broadcasts, as when Key Maps are enabled, they will be blocked from the AH window, even though it may be sending to the other windows.
