USB keyboard connection

The PD204 provides the [USB (KYBD)] connector for connecting a USB keyboard. By connecting a USB keyboard to this connector, you can enter file and label names as well as carry out some of menu operations from the keyboard.

<Notes>

•To control the unit from a USB keyboard, make setting of the "Keyboard Sel" item in the "SYS SETUP" menu of the MENU mode appropriately ("US" or "JAPAN") according to the keyboard you use (see page 150).

•With some keyboard, indicators may not light until you press any key after connection.

•We cannot guarantee to work correctly if you use a keyboard with the built-in USB hub, USB mouse or PS2 mouse.
