11. Velocity-sensitive Keyboard:

The velocity sensitive keyboard is not only the primary method of sending Note On/ Off and Velocity data when performing, it is also used to access extended programing functions listed along its upper edge.

Please refer to Section 8 - Advanced Keyboard Functions and Section 9 - Advanced Programming Functions for more information on the extended keyboard functions and how to use them for programming.

12. Kensington® Lock Connector:

This connector is compatible with standard laptop-style Kensington® security cables for theft protection.

13. On/Off Switch:

Use this switch to power the device on or off. When this switch is set to the on position, Oxygen is powered through the USB connection to your computer.

14. Sustain Pedal Input:

This socket accepts a momentary-contact foot pedal (not included). When pressed, this pedal will sustain the sound you are playing without having to keep your fingers pressing down the keys.

NOTE: The polarity of the sustain pedal is determined by the keyboard upon startup. When an Oxygen keyboard is powering up, the sustain pedal is assumed to be in the "up" (Off) position. It is important that the sustain pedal is not pressed during startup, otherwise the pedal will reverse its operation, and notes will sustain when the pedal is not pressed.

15. USB Port:

The USB 2.0 port (backward compatible with USB 1.1) delivers power to the keyboard and transmits MIDI data when connected to a computer.
