How is it wired? It seems to have 8 pins. Keys are binary encoded over the wires? Short circuited when pressed? What if multiple keys are pressed?

There are 8 pins. If this were binary encoded, we'd only need 5. Instead, this uses a matrix. There's a pin for each row, and a pin for each column. To read a key press, we check for current between a particular row, and a particular column. This works fine for one key press, but it's not good for more than one. EG: 1 and 5 being pressed looks the same to the computer as 1, 2, 4, and 5 being pressed simultaneously, because both scenarios result in current in the same pair of columns and rows. Also, google keypad wiring for some great examples of how to use this.

We're using 4 in our lab at work. They are ~2-4' apart from each other and have not had any problems. I would suggest that when you do the initial connection that they be isolated from the other setups.Since we have 4 workstations I used a silver Sharpie and wrote 1,2,3,4 on each mouse, keyboard USB dongle so that if someone mixed them up we can get them back to the proper workstation.Also, DON'T LOSE THE USB POD. They cannot be replaced and thus your out $55.Pet Peeve: Why post a response "I'm only using one at home". What's the point?

Nope. It's gotta be wireless. The question is, why would you want such a tiny keyboard to be wired? Are you limited to one USB? Anyway, I've tried it out. The keyboard doesn't do anything without the dongle being plugged in.

hmmmm ... that I cannot answer ... all I know is it worked going directly to wired keyboard ... sorry, can't help any more than that ... might be worth the investment just to try???

Sorry, anything that I might say about this would be strictly a guess. I can tell you that my Logitech G11 keyboard does not recognize the additional gaming keys, but does function completely normally as a standard keyboard. There is definitely processing of the digital signals passing through the switch.

This acts as a normal HID keyboard where the keys can be programmed individually. So just plug into a USB socket and define the keys using the supplied program.

Sorry about the truncated response. Still have no clue about the Active bit. I plugged the old keyboard into the adapter and the adapter into the USB port and it has worked flawlessly.

It is a wired keyboard. I would not recommend this keyboard. I have had my for 7-8 months now and the labels on the keys are wearing off already. Also, while the width is ergonomic they have made it harder to reach the number keys at the top as they have added an extra row of keys on the bottom compared to other standard keyboards.

I may be late to answer this but I will anyway. I broke the key off in the safe by just bumping it. They are very soft keys. I used a pick to remove the stub. Took the other key to my local locksmith and for $3 they made me a quality key. Later went back and had another made just to be safe :-)

My Perrix.com board is wired. I don't know or need to know about yours. Looks like future keyboards will have to be sold as part of the computer, since I could find no others on the market.

I'm currently using a Logitech K120 keyboard. it's a USB keyboard No problems with the keyboard, works great along with a standard wired USB mouse. Nothing to set up, worked right off the bat. there are two USB ports on the one connect box.

I wired my red line in about 10 minutes. Put it on a circuit that powers on with the key so you it turns on and off without interaction. An accessory circuit is best.

Yes, it support more than one key at a time, it's good for gaming while it works, mine works just 3 months and then die.

no key, they did god on window. But they mirroed in 64 bit, that failed, I had to change it back to the 32 bit it origanlly was. It still works fine. The mother board can only use 4 ram, even though it has 8 ram in it

It's a keyboard switch. download the manual. Might need "Double Command" shareware if on a Mac to have CNTL key work on a PC keyboard.

I honestly don't know :-/ sorry. What I can say though is that you unscrew the screw and open it to find 8 little switches and they are suppose to correspond to the garage doors same 8 digit switch. My garage I guess is digital( probably not) but it doesn't have 8 switches. It just had a mother board that's programmed to my opener.

Y. Park,Is it possible you inadvertently pressed O rather than (blue) Fn 0 (p) key? I made this error several times until I figured I was pressing the wrong key. Then I was able to pair my BB to the iGo. Just a wild guess.
