Hi Mike, If you look on your external display at the very bottom of the screen you should see a blue status bar. On the left it will show either rx or TX based on whether the K3 is transmitting or not. On the right there will be a small asterisk if the SVGA card detects a valid USB keyboard (Apple keyboards appear to not work) . If you see the asterisk, you should be able to type characters and they will show up in the Tx window which is the data window shown underneath the Rx window. Another way to check is hold down Ctrl-Alt-H and see if you see the help screen.
Regarding BIOS keyboard etc. The USB stack we are using makes mention of the requirement for IBM PC compatible keyboards. During my initial testing I was able to find that all the PC USB keyboards we have in house work fine. Since these keyboards are relatively inexpensive, I would suggest simply buying one. If you're still running into problems getting the transmit to work, give me a call at Elecraft. 73, Paul -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/P3SVGA-USB-Keyboard-tp7559752p7559828.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
