WirelessUSB Tips and Tricks

•WirelessUSB LS RDK Keyboard

The RDK Keyboard is a 101-key keyboard with the addition of multimedia keys (Internet, mail, and etc.) and power keys.

•WirelessUSB LS RDK Bridge

The RDK Bridge supports both the RDK Keyboard and RDK Mouse.

•WirelessUSB LS RDK Microbridge

The RDK Microbridge supports both the RDK Keyboard and RDK Mouse with a smaller footprint.

•WirelessUSB LS RDK Mouse

The RDK Mouse is a three button optical mouse with scroll wheel.

•USB Standard A-Plug to Standard A-Receptacle Cable A USB extension cable for use with the RDK Bridge.

•Batteries

Five AA batteries are included in this Kit. Three batteries are for the RDK Keyboard and two batteries are for the RDK Mouse. The bridge is a USB bus-powered device and does not require batteries.

•WirelessUSB LS Keyboard/Mouse RDK CD-ROM

The CD contains the documentation, example code and hardware design files – everything you should need to design your wireless keyboard and mouse.

Insert batteries into the internal keyboard battery compartment.

Next insert batteries into the mouse.

Next plug the USB extension cable into your PC and then plug the bridge into the extension cable. Your PC should automatically recognize the device and install drivers for USB HID devices (keyboard and mouse). The red LED on the bridge will blink slowly until a device is connected. The red LED will blink faster during the bind process. The green LED will turn on when data from the keyboard or mouse is received.

The keyboard and mouse may have already been “bound” together during manufacturing. If the devices are already “bound” skip the next two steps.
